Drivable Areas
The current solution for parking lots and gas stations is not particularly user friendly. A user driving within these areas is directed to follow parking lot road segments which can be very complex and still may not represent the paths that drivers actually follow.
A means to give a user a general instruction to proceed to a particular exit to get going on their route could result in a better user experience, especially in the case of of multi-level parking structures where a user may drive in circles repeatedly as they proceed to the exit level.3 votes -

Bring back the zoom bar
With all of the new zoom levels I'm respectfully begging for the return of the zoom bar in order to know what zoom level you are at. Since many map objects only display below a certain zoom level, in vanilla WME, you must guess whether you'll be able to see what you need. Also, the zoom bar allowed for single click zooming, rather than using the scroll wheel or multiple clicks.

Add the ford option
Waze should add another option for ford, along with the existing ones: "Unpaved", "Tunnel", etc.
In the Waze Map Editor, the editor could choose this option for the entire length of the road that passes through a body of water.

Avoid school zones
We need to be able to choose to avoid school zones. Waze takes me through several school zones on my way home. When you don't know the area, you don't know how to go around them. This is really frustrating. The speed slows down to 20 in most zones around here.

Dismiss auto completion of segment name in WME
When providing segment names, sometimes the auto completion overrides correct street names with the already provided wrong title. I found no other way of overriding it except deleting the wrong name from all segments that use it and saving them without a name. Afterwards it's possible to add the name. This is especially problematic when one just needs to adjust something from lower to upper case and the other way round.
In my opinion there should be an option like a cross at the end of the auto completion menu that closes it and offers the ability to provide a…

New category inherent to places
I would suggest the creation of a specific category for the departure and arrival stations of the cable cars, cable cars, chairlifts and ski lifts etc etc.
Looking forward to a positive response.

Allow editor comments in URs
Allow editors to add comments to URs that do NOT go the reporter.
Editors often have suggestions for possible reasons for URs, that other editors may not be aware of.2 votes -
Update Request - View recently cancelled route
It would be extremely helpful on Update Requests to provide the route/path information for a recently cancelled route.
Often users report an issue shortly after cancelling a route that gave them bad instructions. In these cases, editors can't see what the Waze app was asking them to do, versus what they actually did. Often users forget the precise details of what the bad instructions were.
If this is already permitted to some degree, perhaps widening the time window my a couple of minutes would help capture more of these.

Move closures history to the Closures tab
Move the information about the closures history of a segment from the General to the Closures tab. This way the closures information won't interfere with important segment changes history and it will be easy to look the specific information. The "last date" will then be correct for each of them - segment changes and closure changes. Also, being in the Closures tab will allow for more data about the closure to be included (incorporating Script features - URO+ or the new WME History Enhancer).

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

Events tab should ask to enable the Road Closures layer
When you select the Events tab, no events will show unless you have the Road Closures layer enabled. When you click the Events tab, there should be a pop up asking "Enable the road closures layer to edit events" with an Enable button, same as when you select the Road Closures tab for a segment if the layer is off. Having the layer off could confuse editors about why they don't see any events listed.

Temporary downgrade of own editor level
I’d like to suggest in the WME a switch (perhaps in the user control panel) for downgrading the own editor level.
For example:
If I’m a level 5 Editor, but only want to edit simple streets which are only on level 1, i can switch my own editor level to something lower than 5 for this action. This would prevent myself for accidental editing more important street e.g. highways.
Compare this with an account in the IT… Even if I am an administrator… I shouldn’t be logged in always as an admin but just as a normal user with rights…24 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.

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 -
Lane closures
The possibility for us editors to close lanes on for example highways.
We'd indicate which lane is closed and a RoadShield like box would appear showing arrows so that users can change lanes early to the non close ones.
