Yeah, the Central-Mid-Levels escalator system is awesome... until it isn't. The signage is, as you said, a joke. I've lived here for years and still occasionally get turned around down there.

Failing that, just keep an eye out for major streets; once you hit one, it’s usually easy to orient yourself. Don't rely on the on-site signs, though. They're practically useless.

Enjoy the ride!
