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.

Permission to use a specific private road
In many places there is more than one access road, one for guests and one for residents. The entrance that is for residents only is usually marked as a private road. WAZE takes me a full circle to get around the entrance that I am allowed to use as a resident. I suggest that there should be an option to add permissions to use a particular private road.

Future turns display
It could be beneficial to have future turns displayed on the screen. Sometimes there would be a right turn shortly after a left turn and it causes me to miss my turn just because I wasn’t aware of the follow-up turn. Having a few future turns displayed would be useful for drivers navigating in smaller roads where there could be many turns.

Inclusion of CNG as a Fuel Type on Waze
Dear Waze Team,
I would like to suggest the inclusion of CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) as a fuel option in the Waze app.
In Brazil, where CNG is widely used, many drivers would greatly benefit from this functionality. CNG is known for being a more economical and environmentally friendly alternative, helping to reduce CO2 emissions.
Adding CNG as a fuel option in Waze would not only enhance the user experience but also demonstrate the platform's commitment to sustainability and adapting to regional needs. I am confident that this change would be well-received by the millions of drivers using Waze daily in Brazil.
Thank you for your attention and consideration.
Best regards,
Jorge de Oliveira Junior

Please make the 'next road' number bigger. The icon is too small to read safely while driving.
Please make the 'next road' number bigger. It's a big image with a small font. Knowing where I am going next is vital but the font is too smaller. Either make it bigger by default or let me choose to make it bigger.

Pedestrian crosswalks as a hazard (For crosswalks with no stop signs)
There are some crosswalks with no stop signs. I believe this would make crosswalks easier to spot when more obvious signals are not present (stop signs, lights, etc)

Ways to avoid high crime areas
Has there been any thought to adding a feature where wazers could elect to avoid high crime areas, similarly to how we can elect to avoid tolls?

Need to distinguish between HOV and Express/HOT/Toll lanes
Maybe this is California specific, but we have both HOV lanes, which require 2+ passengers but have no toll required, and then we have Express Lanes, which are toll lanes that you can drive in regardless of number of passengers, but do require a toll (paid for via a transponder - Fastrak in CA).
I drive by myself so I cannot use the HOV lanes, but I do have a Fastrak transponder so I can use the Express lanes. But if I tell Waze that I have Fastrak, it automatically also routes me on the HOV lanes, which I cannot be in. Two consequences: 1) The route duration/ETA is always way off because it is calculated assuming I am in the HOV lanes, and 2) it keeps telling me to get back in the HOV lanes which is annoying.
What is needed is ability to say "Yes - I have a transponder and want to use the express lanes" and, SEPERATELY say yes/no I have 2+ passengers and want to use HOV lanes if available and optimal.

Avoid traffic jams.
I often travel with 3 kids on long road trips. Always rather be moving than standing in place with screaming kids and I am SURE a lot of people would agree. I recently had a trip take 10+ hours instead of the original 7 because of completely predictable and avoidable traffic jams on highways. Clearly not there in the middle of the night when I depart but jams there every day since they are because of ongoing construction work on a lane. I kind of assumed waze already tried to help you avoid these but I guess I was wrong. Ran into 4 of them.
I need a setting to avoid jams appearing on my route with 2 extra parameters: max acceptable length of of a traffic jam (in minutes) and max percentage of remaining trip length added as a consequence of choosing an alternative route.
This could be via a notification showing you the jam estimated length and the cost of reroute.
Ex:
I enable the feature and chose a 10 minute max jam time and a 15% max time increase.
A notification appears telling me a new jam appeared on my current route. Jam seems 15 minutes long and the alternative route adds 1 hour to my route (10% of my total remaining trip time) and I gladly accept and am rerouted to leave the highway and rather keep moving that waiting in a standstill.I often travel with 3 kids on long road trips.

Inserire la possibilità di evitare strade strette a doppio senso
Purtroppo capita spesso soprattutto in zone periferiche di imbattersi in stradine strette a doppio senso dove magari ci si trova difronte un furgone in salita. Darei la possibilità agli utenti di preferire qualche km in più ma più comodo dal punto di vista della larghezza della carreggiata.

Snelheid passend bij het voertyig
Is er misvhien een mogelijkheid om de maximale toe gestane snelheid van je voertuig in te geven , zodat dit in de navigatie ook mee genomen kan worden, als ik bijvoorbeeld met een vrachtwagen rijd dat ik 80km/h in kan geven bij een auto met aanhanger 90km/h en bijboorbeeld met een tractor 45 km/h. Ik moet namelijk morgen met de caravan boor werk op pad maar nu is het heel lastig inschatten hoelang ik hier over doe.
Misvhien kunnen jullie hier iets mee.

Ability to Add a "Gate" to a segment of roadway on Waze Map Editor, then include Definitions of that Gate
Ability to Add a "Gate" to a segment of roadway on Waze Map Editor, then include Definitions of that Gate, such as, Restrictions of Entry (Guests-only, Guests and Residents, Residents-only, Construction-only, All Types Available Access), Restrictions of Roadway (Narrow Road, Unpaved Road, Separate Lane for Guests, etc.), and Times of Guest Availability (Primarily for Gated Communities that employ staff and have to revolve around Holidays, Night Time Restriction Hours, etc.).
I'm a Spark Delivery Driver for the Jasper, GA area and roughly 80% of the gates that I encounter are Private Resident Gates with 20% of them being Gated Community Gates - several of these have a lot of restrictions that people aren't made aware of. To make matter worse, Waze GPS will automatically direct Guests (such as, myself) to Enter a Gate Restricted to Residents-only, then force me to turn back around and manually enter the Front Gate address. For example, Bent Tree Community has a Gate at "Grandview Gate Dr." that is taken via "Grandview Dr." that is off of "Cove Rd." in Jasper, GA. This is strictly Residents-only - no Guests, no call box, and no entry allowed PERIOD for anybody other than Residents-only. They are VERY strict on their rules.
