Two arrival points for places created as Area
Currently when creating a place area as there is only one arrival point to be adjusted.
Tip: In certain types of places, especially Mall, there should be the option of adding another point of arrival because usually the Mall have more than one entry and Waze could trace the route to the nearest point of arrival at that location.
Another problem is users who create places like area and do not set the finishing point, often cause routing problems for the nearest street may be another, then my suggestion is that when created places like area WME let alone save after placing the order setting the point of arrival, no longer able to save as standard.
Thank you for the suggestion. This is currently supported in WME but pending app support.

Yes, this is what we need!
Big shopping malls here in Finland have usually many entrance gates to the parking area. For example, Iso Omena (www.isoomena.fi) have five entrance/exit gates. It would be very cool to know which entrance flows fastest. -

Two stop points for the same place would also be very useful for for railroad stations with road access from two sides, but without a nearby car road crossing the railroad. This would be valuable when you are to drop off, or pick up, someone at the railroad station. As pedestrians can cross the railroad (through a tunnel) they are equally well of at either side.
Waze giving directions to the closest stopping point would save time so that your friend is able to catch the train in time. It would also minimize driving distance if you are routed to the western stop point when you approach the station from west, and vice versa.
In my example (Åkarp station, Åkarp, Sverige) there is only 1 km to drive around to reach the other side of tracks but the (two track) railroad is very busy so you could be waiting at the level crossing barriers for 10 minutes. Of course you could take another route but then it's 7 km to drive.
