Not a bug. The cyrillic transcription exactly transliterates to "Centr", not "Center"

Edit: OK, but in another place is CENTR:

Still "CENTR" is not correct at road signes here in Russia. Because "centr" is not a name (for transliteration) but just direction (like LEFT and RIGHT). It should be "CENTER" in English, undoubtably.

Moreover, according to Russian GOST Р 52290-2004 (standard rules for road signes)..... "4.20 On signs intended for installation on roads along which routes of foreign tourists pass, inscriptions designating infrastructure objects (city, street, stadium, museum, etc.) and geographical objects (mountain, river, lake, etc.) are duplicated in English".

Basicly, CENTR in not more than grammar mistake for foreign people. No sense to use it at roads.
