VT Surface Shields

In early 2022, Pete (whoaitspete) and I discussed adding surface street turn instructions with shields.

Vermont has a pretty good (and consistent) system whereby signs in advance of an intersection identify control cities and at the intersection signs identify the routes. This has been implemented on a few intersections in VT, as a way to gain editor insight in what needs to be done to properly add these in WME, as well as to see the results whilst navigating.

Route signs are located at the intersection, or in this case, slightly before the intersection:
