Recently notice at least a few major gantry signs not serving its purpose. Some are one overlaps the other, some are cover by trees really want to know how long we need to wait for the tree to grow up uncover the signage.
If you encountered any, please post here may be LTA too busy go around to check.
Next on the list are bushes, trees or even LTA signboards that is blocking the carpark entrances and exit where you can't see on-coming vehicles when you need to turn!!!
1. Kaki Bukit Viaduct towards Tampines Ave 10 gantry fully covered by leaves. [Gantry info: Kaki Bukit Ave 4, Tampines Ave10]

I had been working in highway design many many years ago, in SG there are many signage/gantry, road markings design are not up to design standard. Sad to say without end users feedback the designer/authority will never know hidden defects.
For us as taxi driver long hours on the road we certainly face much more potential disaster than other road users. The more we pass these dangerous zone the higher chance we go see doctors and nurses.
Insufficient super elevation + speeding may result fatal accident. For instance, when we steering LEFT on highway (e.g. PIE after BKE exit) the super elevation on the RHS is designed for 80km or slower and if raining or speeding axxxxxxx could happen anytime.

That's what I thought initially. Npark throw the ball back to LTA, LTA then pass.
Please note that some road signages already there long long time ago, without proper planing ahead + common sense then ends up traffic light placed infront, new informative signs placed infront from time to time... bahbaba, someone from NPark planted a tree next claims that "no worries, 10 years later when tree grow tall you all will see signs clearly."
