Does anyone have any information or insight into when the mooted
audio "next stop" information might be introduced to buses?

Audio announcements are very annoying.


True, but I'd rather be told "Next Stop: Streatham Station" than "Bus
stopping at next bus-stop, please stand well clear of doors", which is
what one is told with monotonous regularity every 2 minutes or
thereabouts..... "Next stop: Lambeth Town Hall, please stand clear of
doors" would be less infuriating by a very long way!


Would be much better to not need to tell people to stand clear of the doors.
Do they listen take notice anyway?


True, but telling them is far better than the infernal BEEP BEEP BEEP
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP you currently get!
