You asked

Greetings, I am a London Bus Enthusiast that plays the Virtual Platform called ROBLOX & implements buses into the game for others to drive & play. Beginning off, I would like to request if I would be able to have/use the recent Ibus Announcements such as Social Distancing, 'This bus is Ready to Depart' or 'The Next Bus Stop is Closed'. It would be amazing if you could email me downloads of it so that I would be able to turn it into a ROBLOX File. Please note that I don't want any Route Numbers or Stop announcements. simply just the passenger information announcements Bus Drivers can use to easily communicate with all passengers at once. If this were to be provided to me, I'd like to request permission to use these for online platform called ROBLOX of which I own a Bus Company under the name of Tower Transit (London).
