yes your suggestion is perfect. blind people are rather by law allowed and by rule recommended to board the bus from the front and now a days the drivers generally stop the busses properly when they site a blind person standing on the bus stop. the problem is the blind person should know his/ her bus has actually arived. remember the problem I told in some previous email on the thread? and the other thing is that the other point of informing the user the near by colony or area is a must because while a sited person can read the area board on the nacka for example, a blind person has no clue where he is heading. rgds Krishnakant.
