Whoever's responsible for this patch needs to be sacked.

That's a clear case of "The sign's not right anyway, so replace."

Noticed the blue signs for the White Bay Cruise Ship terminal today on the western side of the Anzac Bridge. Seems slightly premature. Sorry no pics.

I take that last bit back. I believe the new terminal starts operating shortly. So much for those of us who thought access would require driving up the bottom bit of Victoria Road.

Why the long space (in the road name patch)? I've been wondering what it could be for quite a while.

At least the street lives up to its name, aptly named street with a sign like that.

I wonder what the RMS would reply with if they were questioned on the matter?

It looks like a coverplate (there's a seam on the road name patch), almost like they misspelt the road name or put the wrong road name on the sign.

Some joker at the council probably did this - at the intersection of South Dowling Street & Cres Street in Moore Park

A street corner sign. People tend to have their legs up in the air.

These interesting signs have popped up in several parts of Surfers Paradise.

An illusive F1 shield (and NR1 shield) on the Bradfield Highway at Milsons Point, 1988



From: http://youtu.be/8RYfS4jY40Q

(also WTF is going on with that shoddy bitumen job on Milsons Point Station?)

Similar signs (VMS type) were installed by RMS when the Kempsey bypass works were underway. Yes, people are fucking retarded.

I can barely see some F1 shields here. See if you can spot them!
