A collection of signages I’ve recreated.
Locality Maps
PSD Signs

First/Last Trains
Directions Signages
To anyone with access to the Transit Signage Manual from LTA, do email me a copy as I’m interested in the details on how the new signage systems works. I’ll keep it to myself if needed. *wink wink*
Nice! How do you make the new locality map and the LTA Identity font, I also want to do that?
Thanks! For the locality maps, I took reference from https://www.wayfounded.com/new-transit-signage-manual/ for the sizing and layout. For the font, I won’t be able to share it publicly as it’s a copyrighted font.
How do you change the colour of the train direction arrows after you took reference from there?
I recreated it on Adobe illustrator so I can just change it there
Satorusaka, can you please tell me step by step how you made the locality maps?
Well, its quite a bit of work but I’ll summarize.
First, i took reference from https://www.wayfounded.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/pf-tsm-05.png
using the size given, i recreated the template using Adobe Illustrator, with elements from existing documents online, like the system map. If it’s not available online, I recreate it in Illustrator.
The fonts to use are Stroudley and LTA Identity.
Next, I take a screenshot on OneMap.sg of the area that will be used for for the locality map, big enough to fill the area of the map, using the 50m legend as a size guide. Overlay the map on to the template to the correct size.
I then recreated each individual buildings that fits the requirements based on the Content Entry Criteria from the link provided above. Filling in the MRT lines, roads, cycling paths and other details needed.
How do you copy the text and the font onto the map?
And how did you copy the caplet onto the map?
I recreated the caplets on illustrator. The text i just type it out manually.
