Could you clarify which stop this is please? Chadderton Drive has two junctions with Hillhead Parkway, but the stops for the 40 on bustimes are:
Hillhead Parkway-Ainsdale Gardens
Hillhead Parkway (the stop that shows as being the "terminus")
Hillhead Parkway-Terminus
Hillhead Parkway-Elston Close
Hillhead Parkway-Hillhead Road

It looks as though it is the Ainsdale Gardens one, but be good to confirm
