Centrebus

[xmj-signal]

Even more confusing as both clockwise and anti-clockwise are both number 40

Actually, it should be less confusing now, although I do reckon one (or both) of the spilt services should have been given a different number (say, 39 for north and 41 for south to remove confusion with the current 40).

Until now, passengers had to understand which direction was clockwise or anti-clockwise and that wasn't so easy - at many places, it would have been fairly obvious from the side of the road the bus was on but it always made me think twice at places like Glenfield Hospital and Beaumont Centre.

Presumably, the new services will show actual final destinations (40N Glenfield Hospital and General Hospital, 40S Beaumont Centre and Hamilton Centre) which should make it easier to recognise the correct bus.
