* The local roads, which are managed by a municipality-level subdivision (cities, parishes, or villages), in some cases by an inter-parish territory, or, for unincorporated territories, by the local circuit. Their names vary a lot, but usually roads inside urban areas are ''ūnimai'', while those outside urban areas are still called ''dourai''. The name ''līltai'' is often used for paths inside parks, unpaved roads, and some narrow roads inside city centers.

These five basic types of roads, no matter where and their denomination, are consistently identified by the colours used on their directional signage: ''camyūnimai'' have white text on green background; (national) ''dourai'' have red text on white background; diocesan roads have black text on yellow background; circuit roads have white text on blue background; and local roads have black text on white background. Temporary deviations have white text on black background; in addition, signals with white text on brown background indicate direction to parks or monuments; black text on pink is used on signals directing to health facilities; black text on light blue is used for directions to railway stations, airports, or ship or bus terminals.<br/>
