Syntax highlighting of a33a870 ~( TrafficAuthority)

Traffic control operations on public roadways in [[Centralia]] are overseen by public agencies called '''traffic authorities'''. Like LawEnforcement agencies, traffic authorities exist at both the national and municipal levels of government, with the '''Royal Centralia Traffic Authority''' carrying out traffic control duties on national highways and outside of municipalities, while municipalities operate their own traffic authorities to operate on city streets.

Officers of civilian traffic authorities are known as '''traffic marshals'''. Traffic marshals are required to wear hi-vis vests marked ''TRAFFIC'' while on duty. The vests may be blaze orange or fluorescent yellow-green, with most agencies preferring blaze orange to differentiate from the fluorescent yellow-green worn by police when working near roadways.
