The Traffic Directorate is subdivided into the Traffic Service, the Traffic Commissioner's Office and the specialists for traffic accident prevention and victim protection.

At the beginning of February 2020, the directorate relocated to the "Babcock site" at Duisburger Straße 375 in Oberhausen-Lirich due to long-term construction work at the old Wilhelmplatz location. Investigators in the traffic commissioner's office there process the reported traffic offenses and conduct most of the interrogations or other personal appointments. All other criminal offenses are handled by the criminal investigation departments on Lindnerstraße.
