  1. Drawing similar type segments

    In WME Advanced Preferences, similar to the option to “Draw new roads as two-way,” add an option to be able to change the default Road Type to something other than Street.

    Helpful when adding a new highway/freeway or a parking lot where all the segment types are the same, I would like to check a box in the Preferences to either “Draw all segments as [Road Type selection]” or “Default Road Type [selection]”

  2. Vehicle Height --> RV

    Many RVs are much taller (and wider) than the typical passenger vehicles. Allowing the user to enter the vehicle height (and width) will assist when traveling as many bridges and roads do not accommodate Motorhomes, Large 5th Wheels / Trailers, etc.

  5. Time Based Permanent Hazards

    Some permanent hazards can be time-based, especially if the local community maps them when they actually alert the driver about a hazard. For example, complex intersections might be complex only at night because of poor visibility, but during daytime the visibility is perfect, and the hazard is not needed.

  6. Adding Traffic Lights to the Map

    It would be very helpful if Waze displayed traffic lights on the map. This feature would allow drivers to better anticipate delays at intersections, adjust their speed smoothly, and avoid sudden braking or collisions. It would also improve the accuracy of travel time estimates and help Waze suggest alternative routes that avoid long red lights or heavy congestion. Additionally, showing traffic lights would assist drivers in timing their turns more effectively, reducing the chance of missing them due to unexpected stops or light changes.

  7. PERMITIR PROGRAMAR ALARMA PARA QUE SE ACTIVE AL LLEGAR A UN LUGAR DESEADO

  8. Segment history - moved house numbers

    When looking at segment history, you can see details of house numbers that have been added or removed. When the position of the house number is changed, the history says "House Number: Missing Data". It would be better to list the house number and that it was moved.

  9. Traffic Event date selection

    When adding a Traffic Event, when you select the beginning date and time, the end date and time should default to the same date. This would be similar to how closures work (add a closure and the start time is the current time, end time is the same day at midnight).

  12. House number change history

    When selecting a house number the interface no longer shows who last modified the house number. History on the segment doesn't always show what was change (it might show added or deleted, but not moved or edited). Segment history needs to have more detail on what was done.

  13. Provide ample time to make an exit if you have to make a choice of right or left exit

    Avoid people having to miss their exit because you don’t provide enough time and/or lane guidance ahead of time. Was supposed to go left on an exit that had left/right option and Waze did not tell me ahead of time and almost missed their exit.

  14. Unify the number of lanes fields in the WME Lanes & Road Width panel

    In my opinion, it would be very useful to combine the two fields for the number of lanes in the left panel of WME. Currently, there are two fields: one to indicate the number of lanes and their width, and immediately below that, a second field to indicate the number of lanes, which allows us to add turning instructions. I think it would also be useful to save space by having a single field for the number of lanes, where we can indicate the width and, if necessary, add turning instructions.

  16. Additional scheduler option needed

    I have been adding a bunch of school zones using the new scheduler feature.

    It would be nice to be able to to choose a date range and select that it repeats on the same day every week.

    For example:
    I have come across many schools that are closed most Fridays. Since they aren't closed every single Friday, I can't just remove Friday's from the "included Dates" tab. So I have to add each Friday as an excluded date.

    For example, in this example:
    School starts on August 6 (denoted by the "[")
    School is in session on all the…

    It would be great to have the option to filter closures on a segment. e.g. Hide all finished by default, only display active closures, only display upcoming closures etc

  19. Add new hazard type - "damaged mantinelli". This is frequently seen on roads in Bulgaria

    Add new hazard type - "damaged mantinelli". This is frequently seen on roads in Bulgaria.
    Those damaged road guardrails are huge risk as they are frequently left not fixed for several weeks or months.
