About eBusStop

eBusStop™ provides web interface into the local authority bus stop asset management database. Local authorities are generally responsible for locating bus stops, and for providing and maintaining associated on-street furniture. They are also responsible for the maintenance of the NaPTAN and NPTG data for their region on behalf of Traveline.

The website provides data administrators with a complimentary means to view and maintain the data remotely from any location. At the same time it serves to provides other users of the data, such as transport operators and planners etc., with convenient and direct access from any location to up-to-date data about bus stops, and associated infrastructure and bus servces in their region. It also privides a range of analytical utilities to assist with planning and policy making.

This hosting is the new (2023) version of the eBusStop user interface, designed to incorporate the full range of features, utilities and functionality presently found in the BusStop desktop application. The goal is that this will eventually lead to deprication of the latter in favour of a single website portal offering.

Because the site provides a live interface to the databases the stop information viewed is always current. Visitors to the site can make change requests either where existing information needs updating, or to request that new NaPTAN stops need to be added.

Note that while most of the data is already in the public domain, and so is accessible as read only to all users, access to certain bespoke data, tools and utilities require user authentication. In the latter case users need to sign in using a username and password. Visitors who wish to be accreditted to use the site need to contact us to register their sign in details. Username will comprise a valid user email address, and while new members will be advised of an initial password set up at registration, users are free to choose and change their password at any time.
