  2. Bus Gate, Lane warning for private vehicles

    Bus Gate and Bus Lane camera Warning

    Since this is the same as getting a fine by speed and red light cameras, preventing private vehicles from entering wrong bus lanes and getting fined, since bus lane warning road markings in the UK are kept to a very small sizes, for maximum fine generation by local governments

  3. Numero de portas sem a necessidade de nome na rua.

    Talvez liberar a possibilidade de colocar numero de porta sem a necessidade de nome na rua, como por exemplo as ruas de acesso as casa muitas vezes não tem nome dai não tem como adicionar numero

  4. WME - Dynamic Speed Camera (Icon).

    Hi.

    It would be a nice touch to add a - Dynamic Speed Camera (Icon), so whatever the user inputs in the Speed Value Box, it will reflect the same on the Icon. I feel this would help new users who think every Speed Camera is (30) but in reality it can be something else.

    Thanks!

  5. Hazard (Speed ​​bump)

    In France (I don't know if other countries practice the same) we are faced with situations where speed bumps cover an entire intersection. Knowing that the current configuration only allows two-way signaling, I asked myself the question if we could not have the possibility of having the choice on a crossing and cross, a T crossing, a two-way crossing, A >B, B>A. Because if my deduction is correct today to cover such crossings we must put two Hazards so that the announcement is made from all directions of traffic.
    Thanks for reading

  6. Assign alternative street names to residential places

    If a street has alternative names, we need the option to assign those names to residential places on the street.

  7. wme - editor profile - viewability?

    hi.

    it would be nice if we could either allow or disallow other users from viewing our editor profile, this is because of safety of where certain editors may try to find where a user lives. (exemptions would be the countries co-ordinators and waze staff).

    thank you.

  8. Add to all places the field “Located in venue”

    The places of the Category "Charging Station" have the field “Located in venue”. The same field should be added to public places of other categories.

  12. Make easier to select segments

    Sometimes we need to do a bulk alteration in several segments, like to change max-speed, directions and so. Although it is possible to select all the street, sometimes, we don't need to change all the segments in the street.
    Also, if a person has some mobility disability or dificulties, it is common they lost their selection of several segments because either clicked in a wrong place or not hold the ctrl key.
    The suggestion is either a creation of a 'Selection mode' that can be activated and allows the user to click in the desired elemnts or a checkbox like…

  13. UR Menu - tooltip

    The UR menu breaks off URs with a long category. This has the effect that you cannot see in the menu when it was last updated, and you have to open the UR for that. So I suggest to make a tooltip for those URs, or alternatively make it 2 lines instead of one.

  15. Residential - show closest semgent where the drive will lead

    Hello, there,
    in the new editor v. 2.242 there are no possibility to show the residential names. I have to choose each to be able to see their names. And there is no possibility to show the neariest part of segment where the drive will be lead.
    Is it possible to enable the option to "show residential names" just as it is for POIs and parking places?
    Is it possible to enable "show the closest segment where will be driver navigated"?
    It is pretty needed, because to create the residential is very easy, but if there are more streets around,…

  16. Parking spaces available in car parks in real time

    Several cities around the world have a real-time feed of available spaces in their parking lots.

    It would be really relevant to be able to have it in Waze so that we can be guided directly to the city center or bus/tram hub. Currently Waze allows you to get around perfectly, but concretely, once you arrive in town, it does not help you to park, so the purpose is not achieved in a certain way. It’s also a matter of sustainability. Waze should help for less time and gaz wasted.
    Morover many cities with real time feed have digital screen…

  17. Leader board changes

    The leader board ranking should be updated automatically and not the day after.
    The leader board should be split or selectable by points for edits only vs driving.
    This should encourage new editors and let them see that their work reflects in a higher ranking (if they are sensitive for this) which isn't hijacked by people who are only driving.

  18. Please can you introduce sub and sub-sub folders etc. for saved places.

    It would be great to be able to have and categorise sub folders with labels such as restaurants, hospitals, friends, clients etc.. These might be further nested to a higher level by area, county or country for example.
    It is really very cumbersome to scroll through hundreds of saved places to find the one I want. When I travel abroad I have different countries places all mixed together in one long list. With nested sub folders, finding a particular saved place could be done in mere seconds.

  19. Holiday based turn/traffic restrictions on Japan

    Traffic/turn restrictions for holidays have not yet been implemented in Japan.
    Please support Japanese national holidays.

    If Sunday becomes a national holiday, Monday falls under the holiday in lieu, etc. There are detailed rules. The dates that fall under holidays are listed in the following law
    https://laws.e-gov.go.jp/law/323AC1000000178/

    Similar proposals outside of Japan have already been implemented and should be less burdensome.

  20. Inclusão de Semáforos, sem ou radar de velocidade.

    I propose the implementation of marking all traffic lights, even those without speed radar, in the Waze app’s mapping system. This feature aims to enhance the navigation experience, provide greater driver safety, and enable more accurate and efficient routes.

    Including traffic lights on the Waze map would allow:

    1. Greater Accuracy in Route Time Calculation: By accounting for waiting times at traffic lights, Waze’s algorithm could offer more precise route estimates, preventing unexpected delays for users.

    2. Suggestion of Faster and Safer Routes: With the location of traffic lights known, Waze could suggest alternative routes, avoiding intersections that require longer waiting times…
