SC Interstate signage...what is wrong?

So someone in another thread brought up work on I85, so I guess its safe to bring this to this board as well...what is up with the signs on the Interstates around SC?!? Why are about 75% of the signs you encounter on Interstates faded and almost unreadable?!
Is this a state issue, or is this an issue of Democrats and globalist NeverTrump Republicans not giving Federal dollars for Interstate signage to the Trump voting states??

It's been a while since Eisenhower had those signs planted.

Lol. Wouldnt surprise me of the Federal government, but I really don't think Eisenhower is to blame on this matter.

Not blaming Ike in any way, it was just during his administration that any real money was spent on our roads!

Basically the transportation department in the state was mismanaged for decades so we have what we have now.

Are you serious? How hard is it to order and have installed signs for the Interstate??

Have you seen or driven on the roads? Signs are the least of our concerns.

The maintenance crews vision is so blurred from running into the potholes that they do not notice the signs.

The signs were engineered to last longer but , you know, global warming.

They are to blame for everything that is wrong with this country. Especially faded interstate signage.

Low gas tax = poor infrastructure. Pretty simple math.

The sun is bright in SC, signs that get afternoon sun fade fast. Paint that gets afternoon sun peels sooner, the list goes on and on. It shouldn't be a mystery.

When you have GPS you don’t need signs. When you don’t have GPS, well then, good luck.

I submit that GPS has led more people into bodies of water than maps or old fashioned non GPS driving.

Well, the signs aren’t great however, did you notice our roads? Pick a road; interstates especially but highways and city/county roads.. all for the most part are terrible.

The signs are also blocked by overgrowth. What's the point to have signs that are not visible?
