EMERGENCY FIRE RESPONSE ASSISTANCE
Hi Waze Team,
I’d like to suggest a feature called “Emergency Fire Response Assistance” to help firefighters reach fire incidents faster and improve traffic flow around emergency scenes.
This feature could allow authorized responders to tag a “Fire Incident Zone” with the exact address, providing quick routes that avoid traffic and obstacles. Nearby users would get alerts to take alternative routes, helping clear the way for responders.
Additionally, dispatch centers could send real-time updates to firefighters (like building entry points or obstacles) for more precise navigation. Once an incident is resolved, responders could mark the area as “clear,” lifting any…

Report and show long term roadworks
Since I am driving thousands of kilometers a month I need a button to report long term roadworks especially for highways/autobahn. And with that it would be nice if the lenght of the roadwork is shown too - it could look the same like the time it takes to come through a traffic jam on the left side of the screen.
The first report marks the beginning of the roadwork, the second the end of it. In Germany there are signs where they write the estimated end date of the current roadwork. That could be reported too.
That would be…3 votes -

Route default to map view instead of list view
I understand my route more if I visually see it. The default to showing me the list of routes is kind of annoying because I always want to see where I'm headed versus reading where I'm headed.

Return to original route if I deviate
If there are multiple routes to a destination, I will choose the one which most suits me, even if sometimes it’s a little longer because it avoids difficult roads (I live in the countryside; there are a lot). But sometimes, for instance when one of my local roads floods, the way I prefer to avoid that road closure is not one of Waze’s options, so I will deviate from the route. Except after I do that, Waze will automatically put me on one of its other routes; often without saying.
Please have an option that will allow me to lock-in…

Route recalculation problem
Útvonal újratervezés esetén gyakran több kilométeres plusz útszakaszt tervez be azért, hogy vissza tudjon fordítani. Jó lenne ha jelezni, hogy minél előbb fordulj vissza. Ezt sok esetben szabályosan meg lehet tenni. pl. kapubeálló stb.

Display intermediate route, Overlapping road section
Hasznos lenne, ha a köztes célt kiválasztva megkülönböztetné a köztes cél és a végcél jelölését addig míg a köztes célten túl nem haladtunk. Pl. szaggatott vonal. Ez akkor probléma, ha koztescélig vezető út keresztezi az onnan elvezető útvonalat. Egyirányú utak vagy más miatt.

Optimize/Differentiate routes between cars and motorcycles
Not all Waze users are power users or tech literate (as well as I who, after a year, only saw that there is Vehicle Details setting and you could choose Vehicle type). Please let new users set their vehicle type as they use the app. I understand that there are people who switch between car and motorcycle, but this will at least let you optimize the routes knowing they’re for cars or motorcycles. I experienced a lot of dead ends only because the path is only for motorcycle size; and nearly crossed uncrossable roads being for 4x4s or trucks only.

Flooding (Inondation): route modification
More & more extreme climate phenomena occures. In this context, the current proposed routes are sometimes crossing flooded areas, which is sometimes impossible to go through. I would like to propose an evolution of the flooding alert to have two levels:
- a first one indicating that we could face issues, but the routes is still valid (~ current alert)
- a second one, indicating the road cannot be used & so generating a new route computation by Waze, to avoid it. (New)1 vote -

Routing/Re-Routing "Aggressiveness" Setting
Sometimes I'm ok with the "stay on the freeway, even though it may be a bit longer due to traffic". Other times, I want to take every shortcut possible to shave a few minutes off my trip. The most aggressive setting might refresh every 2-3 minutes, and suggest non-traditional routes like alleys, service roads, neighborhood cut-throughs, and even parking lots, if there is any chance it will shorten the trip. A less aggressive setting (default) would keep you on easy-to-follow routes like freeways and major roads.

Can we add “school zones” to the “avoid” feature?
I think it would be a good idea if we could add the feature to avoid school zones. It would save time in travel and make for a much safer experience for kids going to and from school.

How do I report a suggested route as a public safety concern?
I reported a route issue while using the navigation app which led me to the Waze Map Editor platform. I stated on that platform a leg of the suggested route as a public safety concern. The route went through a couple of small residential streets that have low vehicular traffic and many children playing on those streets. A person from Waze Map Editor said they have "limited ability to influence the suggested route". Who or how can I report a suggested route as a public safety concern? Waze Map Editor doesn't seem to be the right platform for such concerns.…

I would like to ask for a ability to share a planned route. it is very necessary to be able to evaluate, discuss, mark stops, etc. together.
I would like to ask for a ability to share a planned route.
Not the current position or direction, but the route. When a user plans a trip in several cars - it is very necessary to be able to share the planned route in order to evaluate the plan, make comments, mark stops and discuss.1 vote -
Leave later time should consider route choosen
When you plan a drive to leave later, the time suggested to leave before the time you need to arrive, is always considering the fastest route (or the first option). Imagine you get 3 options of routes, if you choose the option with no tolls (slower), then you choose to leave later option, the calculation is made with the fastest option presented before (and not selected), but should consider the option selected.

Plan for multiple routes using the map
Planner is a nice feature. Though, there are times you want to visit a place and check out multiple routes before hand. Not just three generated routes. These routes I can change by touching a street and boom a new route shows up. This isn’t the same as adding a stop, it is more like Changing direction. I find that figuring out 5 different routes makes it interesting on driving that direction even though it may be longer. Then I save the route with a name. Then the next day I pick the route. Of course, Waze should still generate…

Evacuation zones
I know these currently exist via Champs/Coordinators, this is a suggestion on how these work.
We in NC have had a big issue with DOT not knowing every closed road and considered almost half the state as closed. NC leadership worked with champs and coordinators to get an evacuation zone set up. However, we noticed that routing through this zone was still enabled. Based on this here is 2 suggestions we came up with.
1 - Route Around - This suggestion is to restrict travel from outside the zone to outside the zone through the zone completely. This is the…
