London Bus Waiting Times on Google Maps


Transport for London recently started beta testing a new Countdown API to provide real-time departure information for all buses at every bus stop throughout London.

Next Bus London has quickly released a Google Map that shows the location of London bus stops and informs you how long you will have to wait to catch a bus.

To find out exactly how long you will have to wait you simply need to click on a map marker and an information window opens displaying the bus number, destinations and waiting times for the next few scheduled buses at that stop.

Quite nice as long as TfL details are available - often they are not.
You can also fet times of buses with google maps simply by choosing the Public Transport details on Goodle and clicking on your busstop which then has a link to transportdirect and the times for that stop.
