NCT says rubbish electronic timetables at bus stops are not their fault

Nottingham City Transport says it "shares your frustration" with the state of the error-prone LCD bus timetables at bus stops around the city. But the firm didn't apologise - instead explaining that "problems" in a transition from an old to a new technology is behind the issues.

It said: "You may have noticed that the accuracy and reliability of the information on the electronic bus stop displays has deteriorated in recent months. This can include the display being blank, inaccurate predictions, missing services, the same journey being shown more than once, different information on each side of the display and just the scheduled time of the bus shown, which comes off the display when that time is reached regardless of whether the bus has arrived.

Recently, the old technology used on the displays was replaced by a new technology which was "procured" by Nottingham City Council. NCT said that problems with the transition are causing the issues - without going into any further detail.
