Most of the people I know like the 12 route like it, as you can just waltz up to a bus stop and just wait around for the next bus, as it won't be too long. As long as it has the intended destination on the front of the bus, I doubt it will cause too much confusion.
RE: last comment - some people are stupidand just end up boarding a bus without looking at the scroll.
As with regard to the timetables, they have been upon the site for a while, but the lack of timetables up in Exeter bus station is bad, only the new 2 and a few others ae up none of Exeter's city services are. Mind you, the amount of advertising gone into the new routes this year is superb!
People do look at the number but not always at where the bus is going. We are going to have a problem this summer as the 12A used to go up the Newton Rd to Torre and lots of hotels. From next week it will go up the Babbacombe Road which is no where near Torre. Not looking forward to people asking when we get to the Torre Park Hotel as we get near to Teignmouth.

I am looking forward to Teignmouth (where I live) being on the 12 network. I hope the whole thing works. One of the best in the country IMHO
