  1. Add icon for roadworks with traffic-light controlled one-way

    Add a new kind of roadworks notification (like the same icon as the one currently used for roadworks but with a little traffic light) for those that have a traffic to make the road one-way.

    It'd be great to know in advance to avoid a road where there are multiple of these.

  2. Highlight or add areas that have GPS traces without a Waze segment

    To identify natively within WME to access areas where the GPS points clearly identify that the road is now constructed and ready for use but Waze doesn't have a segment at this location.

    WME/Waze could highlight this to us on the WME feed or as a separate sheets file or any other method where GPS traces are present but no segment under?

    This will be the highest confidence that the road exists in real life and editors can focus on it.

    GPS Traces are not supported currently by the WME SDK also so we can't script our way through identifying…

  4. Some MP makes impossible to select the node

    when there is an MP error about a red arrow the pin is exactly placed on the node, so it is impossible to access to the node. so it is impossible to corect it easily.

  5. User defined low speed input for better accuracy in journey time.

    Not all vehicles can travel at the posted speed limit. Some are limited by type or load. It would be cool if Waze could accommodate this and give an accurate ETA based on the planned speed of the vehicle, rather than the posted limit. For example, the maximum legal speed limit for any vehicle towing a trailer is 80 km/h on all roads in Ireland. Similar restrictions apply to HGV's. A reduced speed field at the start of a route plan would be great for all those drivers.

  6. Editors who have several edits for review and are accepted or rejected to view which one of their edits was either accepted or rejected.

    I have several edits subject for review. Some of them have been reviewed, but it won't tell me which edit was reviewed. We should have an option to view which of those edits was reviewed and the option to chat with the person who reviewed it for questions about their decision.

  7. Better gas station search

    Currently when on a drive and I hit the gas station icon it searches along my route but will give me options that are over 100miles away. Usually when I go to search I want to find one soon and much closer. Also the gas prices that are listed on there and marked as updated same day have been very wrong. They need to get picture confirmation to ensure people are entering in the wrong amounts.

  8. Sub selection of points under one POI umbrella. Like a mall with multiple entrance points

    If i choose to go to a mall, it takes me to main entrance. But a user might wish to go to a specific gate of the mall, In this case, once a user selects mother POI, a popup of gates appears for user to choose

  9. Low clearance road

    Good morning, everyone!
    I would like to suggest adding a “low-clearance road” warning or avoidance option in Waze. Some roads are not suitable for sports cars or vehicles with low ground clearance, and ending up on one can cause drivers to get stuck, leading to backups or unnecessary delays for others who follow the same route.
    It would be very helpful if Waze offered an option - when starting a drive - to avoid low-clearance roads, similar to avoiding dirt roads or tolls. This would improve routing accuracy, prevent traffic issues, and help protect vehicles that are more sensitive to…

  11. More options for the business hours for shops or places (WME)

    In the WME, I guess we can modify the option available to define the business hours.
    In France and I guess in other countries, some shops or places are closed for lunch. We should be able to define the duration of the break between morning and afternoon.
    in the same way, some shops or places don't have the same business hours for each day, so we should be able to define the business hours hours day by day.
    Last point is that depending on the seasonality shops or places ( for exemple on the west coast in france) don't have…

  13. Invalid Railroad Regression Error

    I would put this in Beta Bugs but I know that technically it is not a bug. So I am going to make it a suggestion instead.

    If you have a railroad segment cross a street segment and you decide to junction them.
    (pic 1)
    You get an error when you save telling you that all turns are disallowed.
    (pic 2)

    While technically this is true, you CAN"T allow the turns onto/off the railroad segment (and you shouldn't be allowed to).

    This is a left over error from back when turns could be set on railroad segments and needs to…

  14. Junction Box Modal dialog does not appear in practice mode

    In practice mode, the modal dialog used to choose the routes through the Junction Box does not appear.

    It does appear when logged in.

    This is inconsistent. All the features of Junction Box should be visible in practice mode so editors can learn about junction box without risk of accidentally making changes.

  15. place destination counter for the last 30 days

    Selecting a Waze place could show the amount of route requests in the last 30 days that had the exact Waze place as a destination.

    This would be quite informative and could give us editors an insight on how demanded an entry is.

  19. Display state instead of country when zoomed out

    If a country uses states then when between zoom levels 5/6 to 10 it should say the state name rather than country name. Once you are zoomed out past level 5 or 6 then it should start saying the country name.

    E.g. More useful to know I am looking at Queensland instead of Australia at this zoom level
    https://i.imgur.com/gCI2CdO.png

    But more useful to know I'm looking at Australia at this zoom level

  20. Allow un-checking Segments layer to be persistent

    When using Street Vector Layer I turn off the Segments layer but each time a hard refresh is required (which is far too often) the Segments layer is re-activated by default. Please allow the setting for the Segments layer to be persistent.
