Roadsigns either ignored or due to poor state of markings are not visible enough

I have been in danger of getting run over a few times now by cars turning right off the one way Bushy Road onto Botsford Road. There is a 'clear' Keep straight sign at the junction but also a chevron with dotted lines. It is very confusing at the moment and dangerous. The only ting that saved me was that I started being aware of people ignoring the Straight on arrow on Bushy road and was more vigilant. Has the counsel changed the rule but didn't follow with changing the road signs? Can you please urgently look into this before someone crossing Botsford Road, be it a child or elderly or anyone else gets injured?
