New app (iPhone or Android) is now available to tell you in realtime when a bus is due at a stop. Means you can stay in the warmth at home (or in the pub!), and time your arrival at the bus stop with the bus!

Does that use the same infrastructure as those digital signs at bus stops? Those are pretty inaccurate in my experience, best way is still using the old fashioned paper timetable and take a book to the bus stop :)

The app's data is running off the buses' GPS, so subject to something happening unpredicted they should be pretty accurate now. Give it a go an report back...

Sounds good then, I don't use the bus much or have an iPhone but I'll get my missus to try it :)
