Research direction

Start by reproducing navigation on Singapore roads, especially Clementi Avenue 2, with Mapbox Navigation SDK 2.10.4 and inspect the Directions API road-name data and its display. Done means the road name shown during navigation contains only the English name, with a regression check for the reported multilingual output.
