Suggestion: Allow Users to Report Temporary Road and Bridge Closures via the Waze Website

I'm getting quite frustrated with Waze, as multiple times during my commute from work to home, it has directed me towards bridges or roads that are closed due to construction work.

I think Waze should introduce an interactive map on its desktop website that allows users to easily report temporary road closures, bridge closures, roadworks, and other blockages.

Some features I'd like to see include:

• Report closures from a PC: Allow users to select a road or bridge directly on the map and report a temporary closure.
• Bridges as selectable locations: Make bridges identifiable on the map so users can report when a specific bridge is closed.
• Temporary construction zones: Allow users to mark areas where roadworks are taking place, including the affected roads.
• Upload photographic evidence: Let users upload a photo of a road closure sign showing the dates and times of the closure.
• Manually enter closure times: Allow users to specify when a closure starts and ends, including recurring closures (e.g. overnight roadworks between 8 PM and 6 AM).
• Community verification: Allow other Waze users to confirm whether a reported closure is still in place.
• Better route planning: Ensure reported closures are considered when Waze calculates routes, preventing drivers from being directed towards roads that are known to be closed.

I understand that Waze relies heavily on community reports, but not everyone can safely report a closure while driving. Having the option to report closures from a computer after completing a journey would make it much easier to keep the map accurate.

The main goal is simple: if a road or bridge is closed, Waze should know about it before directing drivers towards it.

I believe these features would significantly improve the experience for commuters and help prevent unnecessary diversions, wasted fuel, and frustration.
