Need to show school zones and the speed limits of the school zones.

The Waze app needs to take into consideration school zones when calculating the fastest route since routes with school zones obviously take more time.

Considering the safety of our children is paramount, it's crucial to regularly assess and improve school zones for optimal security and efficiency. The School Zone Report provides invaluable insights into areas that require attention, ensuring the well-being of students and peace of mind for parents and educators alike. As we delve into this report, it's evident that collaboration between community stakeholders, policymakers, and local authorities is indispensable in implementing necessary measures. From traffic management to infrastructure enhancements, every aspect plays a vital role in creating a safe environment conducive to learning. Exploring solutions and sharing ideas through platforms like https://writepaper.com/write-my-discussion-post can foster meaningful dialogue and drive actionable change. Let's leverage this opportunity to prioritize the safety of our future generations.

WAZE should add the option to report school zones under Hazard when the school zones are in effect instead of the current "Hazard ahead" as most people report for school zones.

Indeed. Very important alert since school zones, specially in Brazil, are commonly disregarded by the drivers.

Let users add an active school zone as they can an object in the road or a vehicle on the side of the road. It would be to labor intensive for waze to upload all school zones. Not to mention they change based on holidays. Just create a way for users to add it as a warning or hazard please. I am tirednof seeing people speeding through school zones.

This I think is a good idea. Just keep in mind it could become a bit spammy (especially in bigger cities). I would still definitely want the variable SLs with it (not just yelling 'school zone' and doing nothing about it), but this would be a good addition.

There has been considerable discussion about getting times/calendars etc in Waze for school zones (and other variable SLs)
I agree with the suggestion that just use a School Zone/warning, similar to the message for high crash hazard area, but we editors indicate the zone eg with a box or an attribute of a segment, and drivers would simply get a warning and popup perhaps like a red light camera alert.
It seems that most of the abilities required for this exist in waze already, just need to adapt to school zone alert.
This would avoid the complications of having to accommodate the myriad of SL/time combinations across Australia.
I also assume the concept could be applied to other alerts eg variable SL roads

This would be great to see in australia too

School zone speed alert should be added to all maps even if its just as a hazard to make our school zones safer.

It’s a no brainer. I don’t understand why this hasn’t happened yet.

Could the school zones be identified with color for a 5 km radius around the school or at least just indicate School Zone.

Add school zones. Allow the user to turn the function on and off as school holiday periods have zero school zones. If turned on the user sets the times when the zone is active (in my local area that is from 8.00am to 9.30am and 2.30pm to 4.00pm). They could also enter the reduced speed (40kph in my local area) or you could embed that information in your map. The standard excess speed warning could sound if the speed is in excess of the school zone limit. And a voice warning could indicate when you are about to enter or leave an active school zone.

Would love for the map to add school zones/crossings, would help with safety for kids too. This awesome Waze community would be happy to add them & add the times that they’re active (can easily look up school hours, or if you go thru one regularly and know the hours/days it’s up).

Avoiding school zones would be a great feature. Schools can be identified by address and times can be estimated or presumed. A smart approach may be to identify schools, measure slowdowns on roads adjacent to the schools, and solicit community feedback from wazers on those roads

School zone alerts needed. Australia.

I see this suggestion was originally submitted back in 2012.
Is there any updates on this feature request? This seems like such an important feature that would really be needed by everyone.

This, reminds me. The railway alert is almost always too late, after I've crossed the tracks. Needs to happen well before the tracks.

Reduce speed notification before entering school zones. Something similar to the "approaching a railroad crossing" notification. Many schools are not viable from the road ways which makes it difficult to know you are entering one with enough time to slow properly. This would enhance safety.

A notification as simple ad "approaching a school zone" would br highly beneficial. It would help wazers to slow down in time.
Just like the "approaching a railroad crossing" notification enhances safety while driving this would be a highly beneficial addition to the waze map.

Do you have an approximate timeline for this please ?
