  1. Turn openings (temporary green arrow)

    I loved "turn closures", but now I see the need to have "turn openings".

    For example, a left turn is usually prohibited (red arrow). However, due to an event occurring on the next block, this left turn is temporarily allowed (green arrow) for a few hours on a specific day.

    This is a common situation and, depending on the location, can save a lot of time by avoiding an unnecessary detour of several kilometers.

  5. Third Lane Ahead Warning for Drivers in BRAZIL

    I would like to suggest that Waze use a notification on Brazilian roads, similar to the ones already in place for speed bumps and potholes, to indicate the presence of a third lane on highways.

    This would be very helpful since many roads in Brazil do not have dual lanes, and when a third lane does appear, it is extremely useful for all drivers.

    Additionally, this notification could help reduce overtaking, as drivers would be warned in advance about the third lane ahead, allowing them to avoid unnecessary overtakes, thus reducing the risk of accidents.

  6. Counter for Chargers at a Charging Station

    Please add a counter to charging station tab Chargers. Once you need to scroll (~7+ charging points), it's difficult to assess how many chargers there are. Example: this Tesla Supercharger: https://waze.com/nl/editor?env=row&lat=52.16064&lon=4.54912&zoomLevel=20&venues=2949642.29824096.27841780

    Just something like this would suffice: https://i.postimg.cc/90z5LZ8z/afbeelding.png

  8. Make Issue Tracker keyboard (next/previous) shortcuts more prominent

    Some editors still have difficulty using the Issue Tracker, and some are totally against it, preferring to use the UR-MP script. One reason this may be the case is that it's not completely obvious how to navigate between the issues.

    My suggestion is to make the Keyboard Shortcuts for "Next" and "Previous Issues" more prominent, showing them at the top of the Issue Tracker panel. This may encourage more editors to use the feature.

  9. Cambiar icono en modo moto

    In Car mode, you can change the icon to another one. But in MOTORCYCLE mode, this is not possible and a very thin motorcycle (2D) appears that blends in with the road and is difficult to see easily when riding a motorcycle.
    You should be able to change to a more visible one, such as the arrow or triangle that stands out more. This way, you will avoid taking your eyes off the road more than necessary.

  10. Height limitation of bridges

    I think WME should have a bridge height segment. Some of the bridges, at least here in Finland, are really low and even a van is in danger of getting stuck on its roof. It would make driving easier.

    With the same effort, it would certainly be great if the roads also got a possible weight restriction segment.

  11. Ability to add more than 4 fields in the Address box

    Please give us the ability to create more than 4 address fields. and make it so that editors can set custom number of fields according to their own area.
    Right now waze has four boxes for address: Street, City, State, Country.
    Not all addresses in the world work quite exactly like this so please
    I would like to suggest waze allow users to create custom fields and name them and Country coordinators set the limit of fields in each city and country.
    So we can have many fields like:
    Street
    Sector
    Phase
    Town
    City
    District
    State
    etc.
    I tried looking…

  13. House Number (HN) Mode recenters map

    When hitting H to enter HN editing mode, the map is recentered and zoomed on the selected segment. There should not be any zoom or centering change if the current zoom level allows for HN editing.

  15. Add an option to delete a community schedule

    The scheduler does not have the option to delete a community schedule. Some schedules were added for testing, and some are not needed anymore since no school zone uses that schedule. It is suggested that any schedule that is not used at all, or when the defined time has expired, can be deleted.

  17. ICON Change on RTC for Turns

    Currently when you select a segment with an RTC on a turn arrow, you just see the white fence/barricade icon that you see on the node. You then have to hover over the turn arrow, then click on Turn Closures and go to the window that popped up to see if these are active or finished.

    I would like to see the icon changed to the the Red Closed symbol when active, like we see on segments when they are actively closed, and then the grey circle we see when they are finished. It would help tremendously in deciding if…

  18. WME External providers marked as Permanent closed as a Places Problem

    Many Places in Waze have a External providers marked as Permanent closed, and action needed to either remove it (if the places are permanently closed) or remove the problematic External providers link( if the places are active but the External providers link are marked as permanent closed).
    However, we as an editor are no ways to know if the External providers link are still active nor it is marked as permanent closed.
    So. can we have WME to detect those External providers link and trigger a places problems (something like map problems) for editors to check and fix the problematic…

  20. Allow editing geometry of segments with permanent hazards (PHs)

    Currently, if a segment has a PH, it automatically becomes non-editable by lower level editors, even if they would normally be able to edit a given segment, had there been no PH on that segment. This prevents an editor from continuing, and requires intervention from a senior level editor.

    The only way around it, is to remove the entire segment with a PH and add it again, in order to continue fixing geometries. However, there is a big downside to this approach, that it also removes added HNs.

    One could isolate the PH, by sub-dividing the segment into three segments,…
