About Us

Audible Annoucements

Helping transport operators provide audible announcements that let customers identify the route and direction of buses, upcoming stops and the beginning of any diversions.

For over 15 years, we have been producing professional audio recordings, establishing a strong reputation for excellence. Our expertise in telephony audio messages, phone systems and call answering services has laid the groundwork for expansion into new sectors. We aim to craft dynamic, clear and engaging Next Stop Audio messages, ensuring that passengers receive vital travel information while enhancing their journey experience.

Automated

Route & Destination

We provide clear route and destination announcements, enhancing the travel experience for all passengers. For instance, when a bus stops, messages like “Beechwood Circular 492, Anti-Clockwise direction” and “This is a 10A service to Liverpool One Bus Station” can be displayed and announced, keeping everyone informed.

Our professional audio services are designed for seamless operation, allowing for immediate announcements without requiring completion before the bus departs, ensuring that passengers always have up-to-date information. In cases where the bus passes a stop without stopping, no announcement will be made, maintaining clarity and focus during the journey.

Upcoming Stops

We provide professional audio announcements for upcoming stops, ensuring passengers are well-informed throughout their journey. As the bus approaches the next scheduled stop, messages like “The next stop is Cinema” or “Bus Station” are triggered automatically, keeping passengers aware of their destination.

For added clarity, we can include supplementary information, such as “Change here for services towards Bootle Bus Station and Liverpool John Lennon Airport,” enhancing passenger awareness of connections and nearby amenities. Our solutions are designed to create a seamless travel experience, making every journey more convenient and enjoyable.

Service Termination

At Next Stop Audio, we ensure clear, compliant messaging for service terminations, whether planned or unexpected. For early terminations, a driver can trigger messages like “Service Terminated. Ask driver for information,” with corresponding on-board displays and announcements, ensuring passengers know how to proceed.

For final stops, automatic triggers provide information like “Final Stop, All Change Please,” keeping passengers informed at every stage of the journey. Most systems also support manual announcements, enabling drivers to communicate additional details such as alternative services, ensuring a smooth and stress-free experience for all.

Hail & Ride

We offer compliant, tailored audio solutions for Hail & Ride services, ensuring passengers stay informed throughout their journey. Whether announcing the start of a “Hail and Ride” section with alerts like “Hail and Ride section starts here” or indicating the end with “The Hail and Ride section has ended,” we provide seamless communication for your passengers.

Additional updates, such as street names like “London Road” and “Station Road,” can be automatically triggered, keeping passengers aware of their location during these sections. Our Hail & Ride messages help operators maintain clear and accurate communication at every stop and along every route.

Automated

Diversions

We provide compliant diversion messages to keep your passengers informed and reassured, whether for planned or unplanned diversions. For unplanned diversions, a simple press of a button can trigger messages like “This bus is on diversion” with corresponding on-board displays. For planned diversions, information such as “Diversion begins after next stop” can be announced ahead of time, ensuring passengers know to ask the driver for further details.

In cases requiring additional information, we can provide updates like “This bus will miss out the next two stops” to keep passengers aware of changes, with options for both manual and automatic triggering to suit any situation.

Ad-hoc Messages

At Next Stop Audio, we provide ad-hoc messages tailored to your specific needs. Our examples include inviting passengers to make room in priority areas, highlighting available seating on the upper deck of a double-decker bus, and reminding passengers that smoking and vaping are prohibited.

Depending on your system configuration, these messages could also be programmed to automatically announce at intervals along bus routes or bus replacement services to maintain order and security onboard.

These messages ensure that your passengers receive timely updates, helping maintain order and safety. With Next Stop Audio, you can address any situation professionally, keeping passengers informed and your service running smoothly.
