Why don't you just change the Center Axis linetype to Center?

That part may need to be done manually or with a elevation labelstyle, either way it will not do it automitcally unless it's a band style. Try playing around with the band styles and you may find something that works for you. If you always had a grade break, which almost never happens with a complex roadway, then you could just setup a grade break labelstyle.

My first thought was to look for a font style that had the flag symbol in it and use it for a horizontal top axis label. No luck.

However, you can use the block you have in a section label. Setup a Major Offset label style with only the block component, anchored tot he , and using the 'Anchor Offset Extension' anchor point. When you use this style set the start and end offset values to 0. (so you only get one of these at the center) Set the Dim anchor values to control its vertical location.

Band styles also have the ability to use a block. You can anchor one to the top of the section view and place the block at the centerline.

HTH


BTW: You can apply multiples of the same type of labels with different styles and settings.

yeah the only way to get it to work automatically would be a band. Anything else would require you to do something extra.
