Lack of signage edit

E 008 has never been signposted on any direction sign and it remains signed only as РБ04, as Tajikistani authorities never implemented any European route number signage. While Turkey, Kazakhstan and Russia signpost European route numbers, this is not the case in many Asian countries, including Tajikistan.[1]
