Thank you for an astoundingly interesting posting.

I am delighted Hayes and Harlington Station will have one. I Used
Surface Transport customer services to confirm the stop to be
instrumented is "Towards Jeathrow or Hatton Cross".
TfL does not yet publish bus stop names and numbers.
Bus stop names (England, Wales and Scotland) are available from
http://www.nextbuses.mobi/
I assume the code in the url shown when you click on a stop is what you
want
http://www.nextbuses.mobi/departureb...869F6E7C2D1EAF
D0C285A5E144.busmobile-p2?stopCode=40004405052B
So "Hayes and Harlington(stop E)" (140 to Heathrow etc) is probably
what you want, stopcode 490001144M
Sadly, it is not. TfL places stop codes at its stops. At most stops they
are on the bottom of the bus stop flag, showing the stop name. They are
also placed at the bottom left corner of stop timetables.
You can use
http://www.tfl.gov.uk/corporate/proj...hemes/11560.as
px to link to the "List of stop locations" at
http://www.tfl.gov.uk/as
sets/downloads/corporate/Agreed-stop-locations.pdf where you can find
Stop Code Stop Name Borough
....
15979 Hayes And Harlington Station London Borough of Hillingdon
I could not see that stop code (15979) at
http://www.nextbuses.mobi/.
