Notice Title

Tfl_scp_002293_Pedal Acoustic Feedback Market Sounding Questionnaire

Notice Description

Pedal acoustic feedback is a requirement in Bus Safety Standard (BSS) for buses entering the fleet in 2021. Pedal Acoustic Feedback (PAF) is an audible accelerator pedal feedback for quiet running vehicles to provide an audible cue in order to avoid pedal confusion. TfL are aiming to have one sound common across all bus models in London in order to reduce the risk of confusion between bus models for drivers, and to also ensure the sound is effective while minimising any nuisance for bus drivers. TfL are currently conducting further research and assessment to define a specific sound for the PAF system.
