cate Posted September 7, 2009 Author Share Posted September 7, 2009 It would appear so. Unless of course the travel presenter was reading from an old bulletin.

reetpetite Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Nothing reported on LBC travel news this morning yet they covered the other accident all day when it happened.

cate Posted September 7, 2009 Author Share Posted September 7, 2009 I have just spoken to Steve Phillips at BBC London Traffic who has apologised for broadcasting erroneous information. He received the information from Travel Link who supplies them with the information for bulletins. It took Travel Link almost 2 hours to realise that they had given BBC London the same information relating to last week's accident. Thank goodness there wasn't another accident and my condolences to the family of the man who was killed last week.

BBCLondonTravel Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Hello,Apologies for the incorrect information on this accident broadcast this morning. After some research, the source of this was traced back to an out-of-date email automatically sent to our supplier Trafficlink from Transport for London's Bus department. As soon as it was clear it was an error, I was contacted and omitted it from subsequent broadcasts. Apologies again for any distress caused. Best,Steve from the Travel Team.
