Allow settings to switch on automatic avoidance of reported issues, eg Potholes.
Please allow settings to switch on automatic avoidance of reported issues, eg Potholes. Would be awesome if waze can plan my route around specific reported issues. I've spent waaaaay to much on tyres and rims resulting from South Africa's failing infrastructure. Thank you.

‘Zoom in to issue’ from route overview
The ‘route overview/timeline’ is good but it doesn't let you understand what the issues on your route are in any detail just has the logos eg 3 traffic, a broken down car and police
Can I click on the issues to quickly zoom to an overview of that area so I know where those police are, what kinda traffic disruption it is.
Sometimes these are normal eg the traffic at those temp lights. Other times it could be I big deal eg the beginnings of an unplanned closure and diversion.
Currently if planing a long drive I would have go…

Work
I’d like to request multiple work place favorites along with 2 Home favorites instead of only ONE Home option currently available. ‘Home’ or ‘Work’ is simply name. Users could call them anything they wish. But for easier navigation sake, to be able to save with more than just one HOME or one WORK, the obvious merits are flexible user experiences. By the way, does WAZE necessarily restrict users to only one Home and one Work? Is there more inconvenient or anything to lose if more homes and work places are possible? They could be your friends’ homes, siblings’, relatives’, etc…

Navigate toll roads even when pass not entered in settings.
I live near the Georgia, USA, I-75 Northwest Corridor Express Lanes. When a user enters the Express Lanes without a corresponding pass in settings, Waze acts like the road doesn't exist and keeps offering turns as if they were on the main highway, going the opposite direction, on nearby surface streets, etc. After entry there are very few ways to exit the Express Lanes, and it's unhelpful to have suggestions to turn around or to exit from the main highway when you're in the Express Lanes. Perhaps Waze could recognize that the user is on the road, stop freaking out…

Preferred Roads
Preferred Roads would allow a user to specify a list of roads they are more familiar with and prefer to take where possible, whether manually, or automatically through repetitive driving habits.
If a new route might save me 2 mins I don't care. I would still prefer to use my most familiar roads. If there is an accident and I should avoid to save 10 mins, then it could utilize less familiar roads.
Along the same lines, another collection of roads could be considered roads to avoid. This is different to avoiding Toll roads, as some toll roads are preferable…

Waze should suggest different routes including toll roads when you put in desination
when i use waze and put in my desination I take the interstate (toll road) but Waze tells me to turn around and go through town or the city highway. It will not suggest the toll road route until I’m 50ft for the onramp. when I put in my desination Waze should give different routes suggestions and also give alerts on the ETAs and if one of the routes requires tolls, and etc.

Needs route shaping.
Instead of just creating a route, Waze needs to allow route shaping with way points like Google Maps does.

Routing Error
I live on Park Lane in Jamaica Plain, MA. It is a short dead end street. We get many dozens of cars turning onto it every day thinking they are turning onto Peter Parley, which is cut through. They discover it is a dead end after they are midway down, they turn around with difficulty then often speed back up the street angrily. Our street has quite a few young kids living here often playing in the street. These fast drivers present a real hazard.
People who have stopped to talk to us about it report that as they are…

Acurate Toll pices and locations in Stockholm Sweden
Pinpoint all the toll locations in Stockholm on the Waze map so that the driver easily can see if the calculated route will pass it. It will be more clear than just saying that there is a toll. Because then if you want, you can just select the route that passes the least amount of tolls, instead of gambling on the estimated value that you provide now.
You can find the exact locations of Stockholm tolls here: https://www.transportstyrelsen.se/sv/vagtrafik/Trangselskatt/Trangselskatt-i-stockholm/Betalstationerna/Betalstationernas-placering1/
Estimate the tolls cost more accurately. You can find the cost for passing the tolls at different times during the day here:…

Add an option to avoid intersections with very long signal cycles, which undoubtedly lead to delays.

Can you do a better job on I 66 near Washington?
I have to say you’re coverage of I 66 outside of Washington DC has become absolutely terrible. Today I got trapped in a traffic jam for over an hour. No warning, no attempt to route me around it… nothing. And this happens over and over again. At best you sometimes note there’s some construction but you don’t seem to understand that entire lanes get shut down. You guys are really letting me down on that area

Map a Route “With OUT Pot Holes”
Route selection should display red dots on it representing pot holes so the driver can choose which route to take ! And in the settings we should have the choice to avoid roads with pot holes reported!

Customize Your Route
There should be a way where you can customize your own route, especially if you want to take scenic routes that you might not know the directions, while having the same benefits that Waze offers (navigation, police, traffic, etc).
I was just on a drive that I took six different highways on my own before meeting up to the Waze route and I had to turn my Waze off because it kept re-routing me to the "fastest" route... If I was able to plan my route and customize it to the route I want to take, that would be awesome.…

Need an option in search to switch routes from current location and destination and vice versa.
I like to plan routes and take the same way to and back from a destination. I think it would be beneficial to be able to see a route and alerts from a destination to your current location. Example: A is my current location I’m going to B my destination. Switch A->B TO B->A. Just like google maps.

level crossings
I was wondering whether you have looked into using real time train information to inform the Waze journey planner.
This would be most relevant where there are level crossings, and would allow to reroute drivers when the crossing is about to go down.
I believe that currently, Waze only reroute drivers once the crossing has already gone down causing congestion rather than pre-emptively.
I’d be really interested to hear your thoughts on the subject and the feasibility of this.
