I don't know the specific circumstances of the road that Mapmaker refers to. However I empathise with the general point. Not only is there often a plethora of signage in cities but there is an increasing tendency to add supplementary text that cannot be read at normal traffic speed.
The worst was I found was in Edinburgh where you commit to a slip road joining the Western approach road near the city centre only to be presented with a load of text about restrictions and a very low weight limit. Later in the week I was passing on foot and was able to work out I had in fact been OK. Similarly in Leeds where time restrictions on access in one of the central area roads cannot be read in real conditions.
