Land Transport Authority Naming of roads - Sunrise Estate
In many parts of Singapore, the roads are given names without proper logical structure. 

I show below the map of the Sunrise Estate, off Yio Chu Kang Road. The roads are now named as 

Sunrise Way
Sunrise Terrace
Sunrise Avenue
Sunrise Close
Sunrise Place
Sunrise Drive
Sunrise Lane  
Sunrise Walk

How could the roads be named more logically?

The main road is Sunrise Way. Sunrise Terrace should be part of Sunrise Way.

The roads branching off Sunrise Way can be renamed as follows:

Sunrise Avenue  - becomes Sunrise Street 1
Sunrise Drive - becomes Sunrise Street 2
Sunrise Lane - becomes Sunrise Street 3
Sunrise Walk - becomes Sunrise Street 4
Sunrise Way (off Sunrise Terrace) - becomes Sunrise Street 5
Sunrise Close - becomes Sunrise Street 6
Sunrise Place - becomes Sunrise Street 7

It should be quite easy to locate the Sunrise Streets as they are arranged in a logical order.
