No, thus when the the text message interface starts up the users will
no doubt have to use a prefix, texting say Lon15979 since the Tfl codes
are not unique, country wide as the Nextbuses ones have to be.

The TFl site seems to have a dozen or more pages for every bus stop,
not just the "new iBus display" ones in the above PDF, and each one
gives the relevant Tfl stop code.

I Googled [ Hayes Harlington "stop code" site:tfl.gov.uk] and got
several, so TfL does in fact publish bus stop names and numbers and you
can feed the names back into Nextbuses.

Try [ "The Dysart" "stop code" site:tfl.gov.uk]


Yes, I was going to start a new thread about this revamped 'stations and
stops' element of the TfL site which has recently appeared.
