Add Place setting to force arrival on drive side of road
Please add a normally-off setting in Place entry points to force arrivals to be on the drive-side of the roadway. In urban areas it is common to have drop-off/pick-up or valet areas in front of hotels and similar places which cannot be accessed legally via a U-turn.

Give the user the possibility to set the start and end point of construction sites
Give the user the possibility to set the start and end point of construction sites. With that WAZE and they community know how long the construction sites will be (and can be better calculated with the speed limit). In addition, if an accident happend, you know where it happend within the construction sites and if it makes sense to avoid it, if possible.

Unique alerts
Enable editors (with minimum rank or role) to write unique verbal alerts on the map. Example: when crossing a country border, the app could alert users to get their documents ready. Another possible use is for agricultural and other permanent interior checkpoints.

If there is a delay in the tile build or the map is rolled back for some reason, please show a notification in the WME.

"Sharp" Turn Instruction
Create a "sharp" turn instruction. Similar to "keep" instructions being an angle <44 degrees, a sharp turn instruction could be one greater than 135 degrees but less than 170 (which would be u-turn). Other apps already have this instruction and it would greatly complement lane guidance visuals that use the sharp left/right turn symbol. Alternatively, it could be provided only as a TIO for use only where the community finds appropriate.

Reopen Update Request
A key could be added, available for a certain period of time from the closing of the UR (e.g. 1d, 6h, 30min), to be able to reopen it and change its status, it is useful when a UR is closed by mistake (if the key is displayed for a few minutes after closing) or if the user replies or adds details after closing (if viewed for a few hours after closing)
The button could only be made visible to those who commented on that issue first or otherwise participated in the conversation.63 votes -
Add Driveway Road Type
I'm Suggesting the Addition of a "Driveway" road type that can be added for long driveways for 1 house. Something can be shown for routing to the address using RPPs but not shown on the map as another road.

Separate Map Editor App
I am suggesting an app that allows editors on the move to have a way to handle URs and PURs while away from the computer more effectively. This could also allow PLs to be opened and segment(s) involved to be edited easier from the mobile device.
URs could have notifications and work like a chat room that other editors can join.
PURs could have notifications with the ability to approve if info can be confirmed while mobile.
PLs could open with options to change the lock level and see segment info upon scrolling down.

2-way turn lane
Add support for 2-way median turn lanes to WME lane guidance. Users would be prompted to use the left median lane (or something easier to comprehend).

Multiple Sets of Hours
Enable Waze editors to add multiple sets of hours for a location. Example: a restaurant with drive-thru, eat-in, takeout, and delivery hours. Perhaps editors can add these sets of hours when they add the place attributes.
Another example would be a gas station with a deli that has different hours from the rest of the station.
I think adding sets of hours is too complicated for drivers; it should be reserved for editors if implemented, at least in the early stages.

Change forum request format when using share link in WME
Even though my previous post says this was implemented, not a single thing has been. https://waze.uservoice.com/forums/59225-map-editor-suggestions/suggestions/43000929-change-formatting-of-forum-sharing-options
When an editor uses the forum sharing options, which is great, because of the order of the data on the request, valuable information is being overlooked.
For example, the current Unlock Request automatically fills in the following information:
Hi Editors,I would like to be able to edit the following segment(s).
Your help would be greatly appreciated.Permalink: https://waze.com/en-US/editor?env=usa&lat=29.63406&lon=-104.27920&zoom=5&segments=516527406

The "reason" and "unlock to level" kind of blend in.

Road type per direction
Allow us to set different road types for each segment direction. For example, driving A -> B can be opened for all and set as street, but driving B -> A is permitted only for small amount of people (private road).

TR-panel shouldn't cover the TR-arrows
I've the impression that the behavior of the TR panel is changed. The panel remains longer visible after clicking one of the TR arrows. Nice in certain circumstances. Not so nice if you want to set all TR arrows of a crossing and some of the arrows are covered by the panel.
Suggestion:
Place the panel a bit further away from the crossing, making all TR arrows reachable.
The little triangle pointing to the selected arrow could be lengthened.15 votes -

Real-Time Speed limit
In relation with the time based speed limits, it would be interesting to have the possibility to change speed limits in real time.
In some european countries for example they limit the speed limit on all the highways in a country to 90kph due to too high Co2 levels.Having this option would set waze apart from other navigation apps.

ability to amend speed limits
I'd be interested to find out how I can advise of a change in speed limit please. Our village (Newington, Sittingbourne, Kent) has recently introduced a 20mph limit across the village, but it's still showing on the app as 30mph.
