Whither Spidermap?

No, not Spider<u>man</u> - spider <u>map</u> at tfl.gov.uk

I can't seem to get to them by the time-honored method. Clicking on a letter of the alphabet doesn't get a list of stations any more. I'll drop them a heads-up email, but thought I'd check here first.

They have been mucking about with the maps pages, which I've moaned about, but the culprit here is that they don't use the terminology &quot;spider maps&quot; on the website. it's simply the rather discreet top &quot;bus maps&quot; link on
Getting around&gt; Maps:

Does that work for you? That's where the non-functional alphabetical list is (which I've had bookmarked for ages).

I've never scrolled down that page! I've always used the map.

I see what you mean now - they may have been moving things around and broken the links or something. Complain!

Uh, Negative Function on the map, either. Clicking a district yields the same map, not a list of stops.

When I use the &quot;Browse by Route Number&quot; feature and type in a bus number, nothing shows up either.

&quot;Sorry, no maps available for this route.&quot;

So this isn't what you're talking about:
