Multiple temp road closures = MP
I've had many circumstances where a road has been marked as closed by drivers through the app, but we only discover it around a week later when someone raises a PUR for it.
Is it possible for multiple driver reported closures on the same/adjacent segments to result in a MP or system generated PUR so that it's brought to our attention sooner?
Often these closures are seen on sites such as One.Network, but not pulled through automatically.

Türkiye: Integrate official Ministry of Interior radar, checkpoint, and average-speed corridor data
Waze should consider integrating official public traffic-enforcement data for Türkiye from the Turkish Ministry of Interior:
https://www.icisleri.gov.tr/iller-arasi-radar-ve-kontrol-noktasi-uygulama-sayilari
This official page allows drivers to view the number of speed corridors, radar controls, and police/gendarmerie control points on selected intercity routes. According to the Ministry page, the data covers traffic applications carried out by Police and Gendarmerie units on the selected route and is refreshed every 30 minutes.
Adding this data to Waze would be very useful for drivers in Türkiye, especially on intercity routes. The goal would not be to help drivers avoid the law, but to improve road-safety awareness and…

Crowdsourced GPS signal degradation / interference alerts
Crowdsourced detection of areas where GPS/GNSS positioning is degraded, unavailable, or potentially affected by interference.
Today, Waze does an excellent job using aggregated phone motion data to detect traffic speed, crashes, road hazards, and other conditions. A similar approach could help detect locations where many devices suddenly experience degraded GPS quality. The user-facing alert could be simple and non-alarming, such as: “GPS signal degraded ahead” or “Navigation accuracy may be reduced in this area.”
This would be useful because when GPS fails or becomes unreliable, users often blame the navigation app. A contextual warning would improve user trust, reduce confusion,…

Allow user to switch Google Street View provider
The most GPS-ically perfect street view images are provided by Google Street View, however, there are also volunteers who contribute their street view imagery to Google but lack perfect GPS linkage with the imagery.
Allowing users to switch the imagery by providing the option will significantly cut off the time for searching the particular imagery provider, where the editors are currently switching imagery by dropping the man icon over the streets manually to check the provider.

POI tiles during route
Waze Map do not have feature to show on screen during drive nearest POI on route. Sygic navigation has something like this it shows tiles on top (in android auto mode) which shows nearest restaurants, gas stations, parkings on route with distance.
This is especialy usefull on long routes when driver need plan breake. I can estimate nearest gas station is 2km away and next is 15km away so I can decide to pullover now or later.3 votes -

Send automatic update request to URs with automatic description
When users with older versions of Waze report a problem, the user requests shown in WME sometimes include an automatic description, such as “Reported map issue” or “Reported from AAOS”. Today such URs don't receive the automatic update request since the server considers them a user's comment. The server should recognize the automatic descriptions and send the automatic update request.

private lane
Thornbury Lane, Haverford, PA 19041 - Please add Private Lane - no thru trucks due to narrow passage and low wires. We have heavy cut through truck traffic recently because of Waze and need it to show alternative routes. No thru trucks on Thornbury Lane please. Please also let me know if I should post this somewhere else to have route edited.

Add my GPS speed data into "Your Drive" drive sessions
It would be nice to see my speed over the road segments in the saved sessions in "Your Drive" and probably color code the segments where I was too slow or too fast for the speed limit on that segment. I think if I am reviewing my drives and found that there are colored segments, I could probably easily tell that the speed limit on that road has changed and suggest and update to the maps. Or at least have a proof that I was a good boy and didn't speed up.

Update 'Actionable URs' filter
Update the logic of the 'Actionable URs' filter to show all actionable URs regardless of the number of consecutive comments left by the reporter. The UR should remain in the "Actionable" feed as long as an editor has not yet responded

Add Permanent Hazard for Causeways (Fords / Dangerous Dips)
I would like to request the addition of a permanent hazard type in the Waze Map Editor for Causeways (Fords / Dangerous Dips).
In many developing countries, mountainous regions, and jungle areas (such as in Nepal), national highways and rural roads frequently cross seasonal rivers or streams via causeways rather than bridges. These sections of the road are prone to sudden water accumulation, standard flooding, and severe dips that can damage vehicles or pose a significant safety risk to drivers who are unfamiliar with the terrain.
Currently, local traffic authorities recognize these as permanent, high-risk road features. For example, Nepal…

Install traffic lights near the intersection
URGENT REQUEST TO INSTALL TRAFFIC LIGHTS FOR COMMUNITY SAFETY
Location: Intersection of Jalan Lepai (Langgar - Bukit Pinang bypass) and Jalan Kampung Dalam Kota (crossing over to Jalan Hutan Kampung), near SK Haji Abu Bakar, Alor Setar.
Issue: This intersection has become a high-risk accident zone due to high speeds and heavy vehicle movement.
- Speeding Vehicles: Jalan Lepai is a long, straight bypass road. Motorists speed because they do not realize an active intersection lies ahead.
- Heavy Vehicles: The road is heavily utilized by massive commercial trailers and lorries daily.
- Vulnerable School Children: Young students from the nearby primary school,…
