  1. Calgary back alleys

    Many houses in Calgary have garages located in the alleys; it would be nice to include back alleys in Waze. I had to revert to using Google Maps for this reason because Waze could only route to my front door instead of my garage, which is located at the back of the house.

  4. Map Suggestions need hotkey

    Map Suggestions are a layer in WME. If you want to see under the suggestion, you have to disable the layer. The only way to do that is via the Layer menu. There is no option for setting a hotkey.

  6. School zones variable speed limit

    Most of our speed zones in province of Quebec are variable in time of day, day of week and month of year. Do you think you could add this feature so it represents the actual speed limit in real time.
    In a regular 50km/h residential zone, the school zone is normally active from 7 to 17, monday to friday, september to july.

  7. [QOL] Have Closure End Date Auto Update to Not Be Earlier Than Start Date

    When setting a closure for the next day, for example, I have to update the start and end date even though the end date should update automatically to prevent an error in the data.

    Is it not possible to set an event to run after the Start field losses focus to update the End date field to update to match the Start date field if the end date is before the Start date?

  10. medidas de vehículos

    Estaría bien poder introducir las medias del vehículo dado que hay muchas personas con autocaravanas que se están metiendo por calles muy estrechas e incluso con balcones o puentes por los cuales no pueden pasar, así, de este modo el GPS calcula ruta y omite esas calles o zonas en las cuales no debería acceder vehículos de dichas dimensiones, altura, anchura, largo o incluso toneladas.

    Requesting the feature to include image next and back button as seen here (https://youtu.be/mmKyAL7MPEs) while viewing the images from the place update request popup box (https://youtu.be/mmKyAL7MPEs)

    Hope this video explains what I am referring to.

  12. Time-based restrictions with annual repetition.

    We should be able to place traffic restrictions on a segment, for example in the summer (June 1st to September 30th).

    As the 1 has already passed, we can only place it from today (June 22) and we can only correct it to be correct for the next year after September.

    In this case, it should be possible to insert the total (correct) date of the restriction.

  13. Incorporate Place Interface Enhancements Script RPP Editing Options

    The Place Interface Enhancements ("PIE") Script provided an easy way to add RPP's by offering to auto-populate the 'street name' field with values from the nearest street. Optionally, one could have it ignore the checking for the street name from nearby PLRs and PRs:

    (Options):
    - Use street name from closest segment
    - Use city name from closest segment
    - When the primary is "No city" look for an alt city
    - Ignore PLRs & unnamed PR when using closest segment's name and city

    The script stopped working after an update to WME earlier this year. It would be an…

  14. Traffic Control Devices

    Enable editors to add traffic control devices to intersections like stop signs and traffic lights. This could help drivers navigate when there are few signs/lights.

    It’d also be helpful since many drivers make “landmarks” along the way. They’ll know to look for the stop sign in 1000 ft, not just to make a right in 1000 ft.

    I don’t think it makes sense to let phone users make these additions, though they can communicate through URs.

  18. Radar ou Câmera De Monitoramento?

    Implementar opção para informar se é câmera ou radar: se alguém marcar um novo radar, aparecerá a popup no canto inferior para outros usuários reportarem se é radar ou câmera. Após 1000 usuários "votarem" o aplicativo assumirá o mais votado. Como por exemplo o ponto https://maps.app.goo.gl/7vGVeH3dbH6oodDB7 que possui radar de velocidade nos dois sentidos mas não consigo informar isto.

  19. Multiple entry points

    Waze should re-enable its multiple entry points feature (eg one side of building or another).

    Instead of using the first entry point, Waze users should be directed to the one that’s marked as the main point in the editor.

  20. Swap A-B ends of a segment

    When I select a single segment it shows A at one end and B at the other. Editing the speeds for each direction on that one segment works correctly. Many roads have some segments facing the opposite direction, and when selecting multiple segments this causes a glitch in the speed limit editing - since it's only editing one direction at a time and the software isn't correctly handling the mismatch of directions. It takes a third selection and typing of the new speed to overcome this glitch, which then shows as 3 changes instead of 2.

    The A-B direction is…
