Agreed. It’s dangerous to unplug my phone from CarPlay so I can report a closed road, and it’s a waste of time for map editors to respond to my ‘map issue’ report, which they often don’t get to in time. I’ve tried reporting the closure via the map editor retrospectively, but I need to be a Level 4 editor which is very annoying. Waze often will try to still redirect me to the closed road if I try driving elsewhere to avoid the closure - especially problematic on motorways. Please fix.

The most critical change to implement at the moment, in my opinion.

Waze, it’s 2025, do better. A community member/user shouldn’t have to unplug or disconnect to make the annotation of a road closure, it’s dangerous and downright annoying - wondering why I wasn’t able to do that task earlier now that I’m parked (mark road closure that myself and many,many others on the route didn’t know about), led me to this forum. This shouldn’t even be a discussion.

THE FACT THIS IS NOT A FEATURE YET COURSES A CAR ACCIDENT TODAY!!!

the fact you have to DISCONNECT your phone from car play while trying to drive with no idea where to go due to a closed road just to tell waze a road is closed is a ******* disgrace!!

while trying to disconnect apple car play just to report a closed road on waze cause a car accident this evening!!

having car play at your fingertips while driving is a safety feature! the fact waze forces you to disconnect it just to a report a closed road is disgusting and this flaw in the system needs to be fixed as matter of URGENCY!

the developers of this should be ashamed of themselves!! VILE!

1. How is this NOT a thing yet?
2. Why can't I hit "vote" on this? Every time I report a map issue as proxy for a road closure, I'm directed here to "vote." Yet I can't vote.
3. Again, how is this NOT a thing???

Need closure functionality.

Yes

the 10 west (Claremont, CA), map show express lanes but fast trak turns into a standard HOV Lane right before Indian Hill Blvd. The Fast Trak ends and the map shows it for another five miles as Fast Trak, this is incorrect

I sure do agree that this would be helpful. I am left to send comments to the mapping team, which is also a waste of time for them.

I use Waze via CarPlay 99.9% of the time, so please make this feature available!

Thank you keep the good work?

This Definitely should be a feature! Maybe make it a timed event, guaranteeing that it's applied during correct times or days. last night there was a closure of a major interchange heading a certain direction on a freeway. While waze said it was a quick navigation, people had reported lane closures, construction and emergency vehicles in that area as no one could say the interchange was closed until 4am, and that would help Waze to find alternate routes. Instead as you passed the interchange, Waze had to get off at the next exit, and get back on in the opposite direction to the interchange that was also closed off in the direction. I huge cluster mess....

PLEASE ADD THIS!!! It's impossible to mark when a road is blocked off other than to say a lane is closed or that there was a map issue — both are inaccurate and lead to people having to reply to my reports informing me that I used the wrong function.

I know it's not the right one but it's all I had available and I didn't want others to try the same route with the same issue.

This is becoming a major major issue -- 90%+ of people are using CarPlay and Android Auto to access Waze, and we had a big example of the lack of this feature becoming an issue just this Saturday in San Francisco: there were multiple unexpected road closures due to the St. Patrick's Day Parade, and literally no users were reporting the road closures because everyone was on CarPlay and Android Auto, so Waze kept sending people to road closures. Even 4 hours into it I didn't see any correctly reported road closures in San Francisco... I was told that part of the problem is Apple CarPlay limits the number of different interactions you can have -- I'd say this one is SO important it should immediately replace one of the existing ones...

Unexpected road closures are really disruptive. Letting users report in real time would be so much better for everyone so that we can keep each other informed and up to date. This has been being requested for a long time.

Also why is this starting over from the 2019 post, why would it have been closed unless it was added, which it clearly was not.

This is a no brainer Waze. Please add this feature better UX

Please add this feature!!!

why is this even a question? of course we need closure on carplay
