MORE navigation options, in addition to shorter time or distance
I would LOVE for waze to have multiple options for routes. For instance :
Standard options:
- shortest distance
- shortest time
Standard avoids :
- avoid toll roads
- avoid highwaysNew ones:
- least turns
- least traffic lights ;New avoiding routes:
- avoid construction routes
- avoid one lane streets
- avoid streets with traffic moving slower thanAll of these should be able to mix and match and specify further details. For instance it would be great if it showed option to list trips within X percent of time to shortest time trip.…

Add ERP timing into Singapore Map
It will be better if routing can include erp/toll timing automatically. if user set to avoid erp/toll, but the timing of specific erp/toll is already over, then there is no need to avoid that route! So in this sense, route calculated from point A to point B will include erp/toll if the erp/toll on that route is already off, and it's calculated based on shortest road. If it's not, then will continue to navigate from A to B using the avoid erp/toll options automatically.

Be able to avoid roads that are over a certain speed limit!
We should be able to set the navigation to avoid certain roads that go over a certain speed limit that we should choose. Like if i want to avoid roads that go over 80km/h waze should be able to help me find a route like that. Or maybe I want to avoid roads that go over 60km/h or I want to only go on roads that have bike routes!! Please make this a feature.

Avoid Paved Roads
As an owner of a street legal UTV, SxS, or ATV, or as an owner of a non-street legal UTV, SxS, or ATV in jurisdictions where they are allowed on roads (multiple counties near me in Michigan allow this)… I want to have Waze provide me a route to a destination that avoids paved roads (prefers dirt roads), similar to the existing feature “Avoid Unpaved Roads”.

Stacked Lane Guidance
Ability to map "stacked" lane guidance.
A stacked lane is one where you have one lane turning into two. An example I have is here in Calgary AB Canada, we have a rail underpass that you make a right turn onto, but there is a median between the two lanes (its a one-way) and you need to be is the farthest lane access the left turn at the other side of the rail underpass.
And right now, we don't have the ability to show that the first right lane is "stacked lanes"
Examples:

Earlier notice for blocked lanes
Why in the world do we only get .2 miles notice for an upcoming blocked lane? Everything else is half a mile. This is equally important for drivers to know as far in advance as possible.

Single Lane with/without passing places
In the UK, we have a large number of narrow two way roads which are often only the width of a single vehicle. You can often meet oncoming traffic head-on with no easy way of passing unless one driver decides to reverse. Either that, or at best, you both end up with scratched paintwork.
Waze has no way of knowing which roads are narrow, so will often route along this type of road. Many of us would prefer to take a longer route to avoid this type of road.
I suggest that within WME we have a tickbox option of…

S-Turn penalties
In case of traffic even light, some ways become impossible to cross, mainly ave. with more than 3 or 4 lanes.
Proposal to include a S-Turn routing penalties in case of traffic in the crossing street.
This will avoid routing in ways with less than 200m (safe length for lane change is S-Turn even with traffic).

Navigation option to avoid Drawbridges
Would like a Navigation option to avoid Drawbridges. All Drawbridge roadway portions in my section of the country are grided metal and you can see straight through them to the water. It's a terrifying phobia for me. I would happily take a longer route when at all possible to avoid a Drawbridge.

A driver in the express lane without a transponder configured receives a notification that a transponder is required
If Waze detects that a driver is in the express lane but the driver does not have a transponder configured in the app, provide an alert telling the driver a transponder is required.
Alternatively, let a driver know at the start of a drive that a given route could be faster if they had an ezpass transponder configured.2 votes -

make the tolls appear by flashing the toll
Good evening. You have recently modified Waze by clearly showing the passages for trains. Could you do the same to make the tolls appear by flashing the toll? Best regards. F. LEZZI
Bonsoir. Vous avez récemment modifié Waze en faisant apparaître les passages pour les trains de façon claire. Pourriez-vous faire la même chose pour que les péages apparaissent en faisant clignoter le péage ? Cordialement. F. LEZZI

Set optional the view of toll price information

Route info for drivers eligible for the Commute (HOV) lane.
When giving route info do you take into consideration wether commuters are eligible to use the commute (HOV) lane. Some commute lanes require 2 or 3 persons per vehicle. We were traveling form Palm Springs to Redwood City, California, and were diverted to an alternate route because of traffic conditions. We were not sure if the commute lanes
were also full.4 votesThank you for your suggestion! As you may know, Waze offers HOV routing for taxis. To change your vehicle type go to Settings > Vehicle type. There are currently no plans to add more HOV options.

Add "avoid freeways" to the quick navigation options that currently shows options to avoid ferries and tools.
Sometimes I prefer to take back roads on my commute when traffic is bad. The quick toggle includes ferries and tolls. Please consider adding the option to avoid freeways to this.
