Bus stop location wrong (Sir Ludwig Guttmann Health Centre)

[briantist]

I note that both Google and TfL have this bus stop (Q) in the wrong place.

Sir Ludwig Guttmann Health Centre

It’s actually by the bus shelter, which is marked on the map.

I cross check in Google satellite maps and you can see both the shelter and the stop (purple arrow) and the words “BUS STOP” too!

When someone has a moment, could this be fixed?

Hi @briantist

I’ve had a look at the source data for this bus stop and compared the co-ordinates, both this and the stop data used in Journey Planner (and in turn Google) match. I’ll ask the team at Buses to check this.

Thanks.

I know it’s only a short distance but it makes the journey planning think that it’s better to walk to the next stop!

Perhaps you might be able to get the Naptan stop codes? Mine was 490000287N but it got translated to a web link.

Hello @briantist
223: Montpelier Rise 490001986Z
326: Tillingham Way 490002260Z and 490002260Y
326: Holbrook Way Williow Court 490000375Z which should be Argle Road

Afternoon @MScanlon
Thank you , will they be published in next week’s data bulid or at some point?

Many Thanks,
Anas

[briantist]

Was the Guttmann stop done too?

[Ajebz]

@briantist

I haven’t seen any changes yet actually for any.

[MScanlon]

They should be the API tomorrow and in the TxC and NaPTAN dataset next week

[MScanlon]

Hi @briantist I’m still awaiting a response from London Buses regarding this, as from the data we have and have been provided the stop is in the correct place.

Matthew

[Ajebz]

Thank you @MScanlon
Much appreciated

Many Thanks
Anas

[briantist]

It seems that there is a somewhat lax definition here of “correct”.

[MScanlon]

Hi @briantist

I’ve finally had an update from the team at London Buses who look after the stop locations who can confirm that the co-ordinates provided were incorrect, this stems from when the stop was orginally planned with no access to the road at the time, this has now been updated in all systems so should be live later today.

@MScanlon

Thanks. That’s a wonderful Xmas present!

Evening @MScanlon
Any news yet for stop "Sir Ludwig Guttmann Health Centre " and “Argyle Road” for 339 & 326?

Thanks,
Anas

[MScanlon]

Hi @Ajebz these stops are correct in our data, and should be correct in the API, where are you seeing that these are incorrect/

Hi @MScanlon

https://api.tfl.gov.uk/stoppoint/490000375Z/arrivals
The name of the stop in the tfl is wrong + location. At the moment the stop is called Holbrook Way Willow court, but in the iBus/ API arrivals the stop name is Argyle Road in the API.
I ain’t too sure for sir ludwig guttmann health centre with regards to positioning
Also it refers to stops for B13 and 192 here : Bus API status/Route sequences (For Journey Planner Team) - #43 by Ajebz
i hope that helps
Thanks,
Anas

Hi @Ajebz

This looks to be from the Countdown data which is maintained by another team and not the Journey Planner team. @jamesevans or @neamanshafiq are you able to provide assistance with this?
