Bus Stop Data
Dear Transport for London,
I have attached a link to a sample photo to help explain my request under the Freedom of Information Act.
https://db.tt/2pLjFdl4 - Sample Photo
In the photo we can see a number of identification marks
1) Each bus stop has a bus stop Letter e.g. M
2) Each bus stop has an ID e.g. 0120 0020
3) Each bus stop has a name e.g.. Palace Garden Terrace
4) Each bus stop has a list of buses that stop at the stop e.g. 70, 94, 148, 390, N207
5) Although not marked on the bus stop we also know the bus stop location by its GPS position e.g. 51.509648, -0.193561
6) A postcode may also be assigned to the stop e.g. W11 3JE
6) Each bus stop also has a number of advertising boards available maximum up to 6 if unit had 2 x scrolling boards of 3 adverts per board
Could you please provide a list of every bus stop with each of items listed above.
If you have this data on a number of spreadsheets I can match all the data if a unique ID allows me to do so.
An example export may look like this
M, 0120 0020, Palace Garden Terrace, 70 94 148 390 N207, 51.509648, -0.193561, W11 3JE, 4
I would be grateful that even if all the data is not available that you could provide the best you can make available.
Many thanks in advance
Chris Pearson
