Markers for Emergency Service Stations
An awesome addition to the waze map editor would be the addition of emergency service station markers and permanent building markers / icons with two types for example:
Emergency tap (single tap on any of the icons will add it to your route)
- Hospitals (Marked with a red and white "H")
- Police Stations (Marked with a house shape outline & a badge inside)
- Fire Stations (Marked with a house shape outline & Fire Axe or fire truck inside)
Passive Icons
- Schools (that have a highlighted zone area around them when route passes though and an alert…11 votes -
Multiple opening hours per day
Having the possibility to enter multiple opening hours for each day.
Some shops are open from e.g. 09:00 to 12:00 and 14:00 to 18:00. Currently you have to enter each of those times for each day seperately.11 votes -
Show lanes configuration even if not in editable area
The lanes tab contains the number of lanes and the lanes associated to each turn, including far turns. This is necessairy for adding lanes but also for ckecking them them.
If an editor has no permission to edit lanes on a segment, he only sees the total number of lanes and the lane configuration as a whole.
This also happens when the segment is not inside one's editable area.The problem is, this way it's not possible for editors to discuss or check a certain lane configuration together if this is outside of the editable area.
So please show the…

URGENT : Possibility to indicate a closed road on Android Auto
Dear Development team,
Can you please take this point as priority.
I'm using daily Waze on Android Auto.
On Android Auto it is not possible to indicate from the interface when a road is Closed.
This is a very dangerous situation, when we are driving. As we are totally lost at this moment, Waze is then not able to recalculate, as it will recalculate a way to take the closed road.
So while driving, as most of the time it is difficult to stop somewhere), we need to unplug the phone, launch waze, indicate the trip as it can have…11 votes -

The type of way (preferred / unfavorable / neutral) now it does not appear anymore
The type of via appeared and now it does not appear anymore, even if the editor did not have access to edit this information it appeared on the screen, me and some friends here liked this information because it helped new users to better understand why they did not have access to edition. Because only levels 4 above appear. Could you go back?

It would be helpful to know if a cross street has a traffic light when gauging how to look for your cross street to turn
It would be helpful to have an indicator for traffic light at an intersection when looking ahead to gauge when to turn

Acceptance of adding a road closure without the need to manually specify the "event"
I often handle the addition and removal of road closures via phone, but when I enter the dates, I am required to specify the type of event for it to be accepted. I believe it would be better to make the option more seamless, so that if "Add" is clicked, the road closure is added. If there is an event, I will certainly add it, but there’s no need to force me to select the "None" option just to proceed with the addition.

Allow comma character (,) to house numbers in segments
We have thousands of addresses of places on highways in our country that are identified by kilometers, so throughout the segment we find addresses numbers like: KM 18,5
This is necessary to have more accurate routes and I believe it applies to other countries.11 votes -
Ability to create an Update Request on a Permanent Hazard segment
AS a Waze Editor Level 2, I'd like to be able to propose Update Requests on segments of any lock level that have a permanent hazzard like a speed bump. Actually it is not able to be done.

When a map problem is closed as "not identified" provide a way to interact with the reporter
http://waze.uservoice.com/forums/59225-cartouche-map-editor-and-waze-com-website redirect back here, so submitting here.

WME frontend should show backend errors
Hi,
when saving, if the backend fails, it returns a message. But often they are not localized, and in that case we get a generic
"Please try again later" which is useless because in most case the problem will not solve and the only solution is to cancel all edits.
Here is a list of messages that are not localized and need to be displayed (maybe not exactly in the same form, but at least do not tell the user to try again if it is impossible that it works.Invalid street 0 was set for venue ID -100

For PPs and APs, Open Hours add the option of Sunrise to Sunset. This is true for many parks and public places.

ניווט ומיפוי גשרים
אהלן, אני איתי בוקעי, ולפני כחודש עלה לי רעיון שיכול בעיניי לעזור לנהגי משאיות וגררים גדולים, הרעיון הוא שכאשר אתה מתחיל את הנסיעה או מוריד את האפליקציה, ומכניס בקטגוריה של כלי רכב: משאית או כלי רכב גדול מאוד אחר, הוא גם יכניס את גובה הרכב שלו.
וכל פעם שהרכב ייתקרב לגשר יודיעו לו באפליקציה על התקרבות לגשר, ואת הגובה של הגשר, ואם אפילו אפשר לבדוק מתחת לאיזה גשרים הוא לא יכול לעבור ובככה לחסוך הרבה בעיות נהיגה ובנוסף להעיר את המודעות של נהגים אלה לגובה רכבם, במידה ושכחו להוריד את המנוף או נוסעים עם חלק מהרכב מורם, ובכך אני מקווה…10 votes -
🔥WILDFIRE ALERTS
Show presence of wildfires and allow for user generated alerts of wildfire presence and closures due to wildfires. Create enhanced emergency alerts if user is near wildfire radius.

Topes en Mexico
Debería existir la opción de agregar los topes en todos los estados de México, ya que cuando es de noche o llueve estos no se distinguen, ya que muchos no están pintados como advertencia de reducción e velocidad.

Allow high-level editors to assign low-lev editors a higher level for a defined area
Allow high-level editors to assign low-lev editors a higher level for a defined area.
In active areas of constructions/modifications of new/existing roads there might be a lot of adjustments of primary roads/highways (L4/5) which a midlevel (L3) have better local knowledge of the progress.
Today we have to request that a set of segments have be opened (lowered level) and later restored.
I propose that a high level (L5/6) editor can assign a user a higher level for a specific area and maybe specific time-period (the same way as a comment can cover an area)10 votes -
Stop automatic editing over all recordings
About two months ago a change was made so that every recorded segment is automatically edited by a bot (admin). It is suggested to cancel this change. This will make it easier to recognize a recoding, especially when scripts are used which make it difficult to notice the segment's color. A recording was previously recognized by having just a "created" line and without an "edited" line. We now cannot be sure whether the segment was edited between its creation and the admin edit, and we have to open the segment history or stop the scripts which color the segments.
