New cameras have sent cars down residential roads at all times of the day, even though the cameras only operate for two short periods dur
New Motor Vehicle No Entry cameras on the road outside a local school mean traffic avoids them by turning into a residential street, causing noise and pollution. The cameras only operate for restricted periods around school hours, yet cars now avoid the school road because drivers assume the cameras operate at all times. Can the controlled hours be factored into the driver information so they know when to avoid the road and when it is ok to use it?

Note or comment on reason for place update request in editor
Create an option to add a note onto a PUR in the editor when a change is pending for a higher level editor to approve the request.
There are several suggestions on being able to add reasons for why an update is rejected, but a method for the submitting editor to explain the reason for a change might be more effective in helping the senior editor make the decision to accept or reject.
This can currently be done with a map comment, but often those arent noticed when reviewing the PURs in busy areas or will remain on the map…

Set GPS point color by age in WME
Please set the color of GPS points in WME by age instead of direction, The direction is already indicated by the direction of the arrow. Editors need to know how old the tracks are to see changing traffic patterns.
20 votesThanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

editor dialogue
Many users find it difficult to access WME, or don't understand the need, for dialogue with an editor about Permanent map changes compared with Temporary (Police, Pot hole, Road works) reports which take effect immediately.
Can there be indication in the app of the likely requirement for further communication when Map problem etc. URs are generated?1 vote -

Show RPP PUR's on feed list
There is no privacy issue involved here.
There's simply a pin in the map, among many others, but I can't find them like any others, just because category is "residential"
The privacy issues are solved by the already omitted creator/updater of the place. By not showing them, you are simply making it harder for the PUR be moderated, as we have to scan the map or rely on scripts to do that.
So, plainly: RPP PUR's should be shown in feed list just as any other PUR.
OBS: Previous discussion took place here: https://www.waze.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=211&t=249211&p=1774596#p1774596

Editor Profile daily edit count displayed date
On the editor profile page (https://www.waze.com/user/editor/username), the daily edit count pill boxes advance at midnight GMT. The date displayed on mouseover shows the date relative to local time. This means after 1600 my time (-8), it will show today's date for edits in the previous 24 hours. At midnight local, the dates all switch and show the "correct" date until 1600 again.

Show "Hidden" external providers like Yext
Show that this data exists, so that editors will be more likely to merge than to delete.
When new place points are added as part of a large upload from Yext or some other advertising aggregator, many editors will be likely to reject the new-place PURs because an already perfect place already exists.
If they were aware that there was some other important information in the PUR, then they would be much more likely to accept the PUR.
The back end data script reveals the existence of this data in places. But I don't think it makes sense to depend…

Thank you very much for this great suggestion.
It was added to our backlog to try and see the possibility to implement it when we will next use external providers.

Road with incorrect city appearing
Hi All,
Winding Ridge Road in White Plains comes up incorrectly as Winding Ridge Rd in Greenburgh instead on Waze. This has caused confusion to quite a few people who have switched over to other gps applications for directions there. Appreciate if the editors can remove Greenburgh and leave it with White Plains instead.
