Forget 'Do you know the way to San Jose,' until now it's knowing your way around the Costa Rican capital that's been the problem.<br/> <br />On Thursday the city unveiled its first plan for street signs.<br/> <br />Amazingly San Jose - home to more than two and a half million people - has never had proper street signage and residents and visitors have relied on landmarks for directions.<br/> <br />And it's a particular problem for mail.<br/> <br />This postal worker says almost half of all letters can't be delivered at a loss of around 700 million U.S. dollars a year to the economy.<br/> <br />But the plan to install over 22,000 street signs in the city is expected to meet with resistance from many local residents - happy with simply relying on local knowledge to find their way around.
