Bicycle navigation and bike routes for waze!!! Please!!

Can you please add bicycle routes to the app and ways to avoid roads that go over a certain speed limit? The option to set your vehicle as a bicycle and find routes like that avoid high speed roads and roads that dont allow bikes conbined with all of the other great functions of the app will be fantastic...

But since you don't have the feature so many bicyclists won't get to navigate with your app and get the same benefits that car drivers have... I really need a navigator for bikers that shows the speed limits of the roads and if they have biking lanes before you make the trip to plan your navigation.

You should have the setting to make your vehile a bike and find bike routes, and to calculate how much time a trip will take you just have to ask the bicyclist to input their average biking speed and make your route estimates like that. Then through tracking their speed when you give them navigates your estimates can become even more accurate.

It shouldn't just be for driving navigation but also for people who have to bike places and still need to find the fastest routes avoiding cops and traffic and all the other benefits that drivers have and bikers don't because the app can't calculate routes for us unless you please make an update taking my suggestions!!

    Should merge all bike navigation requests and accrued cotes into one request imho

    Google owns waze correct integrating their bike mapping API should be an easy task. And Marthas Vineyard Massachusetts would be a perfect testbed for added functionality such as bike routes as, modt of the 29x15 miles island is criss crisdlsed by 🚲 paths both paved and dirt. As an active map editor and a prolific ebiker it would also be very easy for me to help add and correct bike route mapping errors

    I love this program very much but I am very disappointed because I cannot use it on bicycles

  • Philippe Mayé commented  ·   ·  Report

    Add an option by bicycle (out of Highways) or by walking and suggest short way to destination with timing.

    Eu gostaria muito que tivesse o opção de veículo(bicicleta) nem todo mundo tem um carro ou moto.

    Great idea, you can already switch between vehicles, we're only asking for one more slower option please!

    Cyclists riding on curvy roads with hills and blind turns, narrow 2 lane roads with no shoulder, etc. can be a dangerous situation.

    It would be great if cyclists could turn on waze and select bicycle for vehicle type, then other wazers on the road could see them in real time on their map and be notified of a hazard up ahead by waze when they're approaching a cyclist on the road.

    One way that I think ways needs to improve is they have a option for bicycle directions because I do ride a bicycle I see they have motorcycle and cars on there but no bicycle

    I resorted to the motorbike option but it is unsatisfactory along the A406 a place where motorists like to hoot you

  • CALIOD commented  ·   ·  Report

    The Waze revenue model doesn't work for bikes since in most cases the app can't show ads to cyclists.

  • anonyme commented  ·   ·  Report

    Add a bicycle mode in « type of vehicule » settings : this mode should guide us as bikers to the cycle roads first, allow us to take roads that don’t exist when driving and prevent us to take big dangerous roads

    Yes please, many are rooting for this capabilty
