If there’s a road closure acknowledge it and recalculate a route
I get that you need several people to confirm theres an actual road closure but if I am the first there and I need an alternative route, it keeps sending me back to the closed road.

@Waze team: Perhaps you should read better before labeling it as 'not a suggestion'. Because it IS a suggestion and even a good one. You can't use Map Editor while driving and it's too comprehensive for the avarage Waze user.
It would be VERY helpful to not get rerouted to the same closed road over and over again. Therefore, reporting it should be easy and processed immediately. It's not safe and sometimes too difficult to figure it out yourself on the go. And other Wazers would be grateful, because who likes surprises on the road?! It's more acceptable to me if occasionally a road gets reported as closed falsely, than the other way around.
