You asked
I am asking whether you have a list of the new destination names rolled out by TFL and iBus for bus routes?
There have been changes in the last year with bus destinations being renamed for it to be more specific to the public. For example, "Queen Mary's Hospital" now renamed to "Sidcup, Queen Mary's Hospital" or "Bexleyheath, Shopping Centre" now renamed to "Bexleyheath, Town Centre".
Many thanks
