I regularly take the bus into Gloucester and back home, and I was confused to hear the announcement on the number 10 ‘the next stop is Podsmead Avenue South’. There is no such road in Podsmead, of course, only Tuffley Avenue and Podsmead Road, which intersect and where the bus stop Stagecoach are referring to is located.
I don’t use Twitter very much but I thought I would tweet Stagecoach and ask for it to be changed. They responded that ‘the bus stop is correct’. Another Twitter user has pointed out that this is what the stop has been named by Stagecoach, but in my view it’s incorrect.
What do my readers think?
