Bicycle Paths
Hi there Waze team, community,
In the view of raising pollution from vehicles and health concerns due to sedentary lifestyle, I think it would be a great idea for Waze to it's bit by marking out biking (bicycle) lanes just like it is so easy to drive around with waze in a car.
This will help people to get around quickly, safely and conveniently. Today in most part of the developed and developing world, bicycles are not given or considered a priority. And in some places it's half hearted efforts for example some central & western European countries where you…6 votes -
Bus Gate, Lane warning for private vehicles
Bus Gate and Bus Lane camera Warning
Since this is the same as getting a fine by speed and red light cameras, preventing private vehicles from entering wrong bus lanes and getting fined, since bus lane warning road markings in the UK are kept to a very small sizes, for maximum fine generation by local governments

wme - editor profile - viewability?
hi.
it would be nice if we could either allow or disallow other users from viewing our editor profile, this is because of safety of where certain editors may try to find where a user lives. (exemptions would be the countries co-ordinators and waze staff).
thank you.

Category for map issues
I was driving the other day and the speed limit indicated by Waze was incorrect. I went to the map issue button in the car, but that was not one of the options for telling what the problem with the map was. The editor who handled my problem then needed to contact me just to find out what the problem with the map was. While I don't mind the contact, it would have quicker and easier for everyone if a speed limit change was an option. Where I'm currently living there is a housing boom. As new subdivisions go up,…

Request to Waze team
Request to the Waze Team
Please add a feature to Waze that uses OBD2 to provide vehicle speed pulses. Currently, when entering a tunnel, the vehicle stops on the map, so I would like this feature to ensure accurate navigation within tunnels.
In Japan, there are interchanges within tunnels, making accurate navigation difficult without this feature. To improve this, please enable the use of an OBD2 connector to provide speed information even within tunnels.
Additionally, I believe Waze could generate profit by supporting OBD2 and selling Waze-compatible OBD2 devices. It would also be helpful if these OBD2 devices could automatically…

Residential - show closest semgent where the drive will lead
Hello, there,
in the new editor v. 2.242 there are no possibility to show the residential names. I have to choose each to be able to see their names. And there is no possibility to show the neariest part of segment where the drive will be lead.
Is it possible to enable the option to "show residential names" just as it is for POIs and parking places?
Is it possible to enable "show the closest segment where will be driver navigated"?
It is pretty needed, because to create the residential is very easy, but if there are more streets around,…6 votes -
Leader board changes
The leader board ranking should be updated automatically and not the day after.
The leader board should be split or selectable by points for edits only vs driving.
This should encourage new editors and let them see that their work reflects in a higher ranking (if they are sensitive for this) which isn't hijacked by people who are only driving.6 votes -

See Editable Areas and Area Managers when zoomed out
The layers "Editable Areas" and "Area Managers" are only visible at zoom layers 12 and above.
It would be helpful to see these layers at larger zoom levels to better understand what areas you can edit, and who the relevant Area Managers are.

Indicate tunnels in the map
When work in progress associated with the vicinity of tunnels, a clear indication on the map of the tunnel precise location can help identifying if the danger is associated while exiting the tunnel or further away.
This make a huge difference in the attention and help ease the driving.6 votes -
Sugestões para otimizar o processo de edição de segmentos no WME
Gostaria de compartilhar algumas sugestões para melhoria do Waze Map Editor (WME), baseadas na experiência diária como editor ativo. Acredito que essas ideias podem ajudar a tornar o processo de edição mais ágil, eficiente e menos repetitivo, beneficiando toda a comunidade.
Seleção múltipla com o mouse: Permitir que o editor selecione vários segmentos de uma só vez arrastando o cursor (como uma caixa de seleção). Isso tornaria mais fácil aplicar alterações em massa.
Pré-configuração de segmentos: Criar uma funcionalidade onde o editor possa definir previamente as configurações (tipo de via, sentido, velocidade, regras de trânsito) antes de iniciar a criação…6 votes -
Aviso de aclive/declive acentuado.
Importante colocar aviso de aclive/declive acentuado principalmente em ruas coletoras/arteriais/vias expressas/federais e etc. Poderia ter a função também de o motorista, nas configurações, colocar pra "evitar", nunca mandar ou permitir vias com aclives e declives muito acentuados, e colocar a tonelada(a medida do carro). Deve ser colocado manualmente no Waze Map Editor. Nível 1 podem editar isto. O aviso é oral pelo som de navegação escolhido pelo motorista. Deve ser colocado visualmente também.

Please add sign icons for national and prefectural roads in Japan.
In Japan, there are road signs that show the numbers of national and prefectural roads. All major apps, including Google Maps, support this display, except for Waze, which does not support it.

Allow us to mark where a train is crossing a road
If we could let everyone in our area that a train is blocking a road, it would save lots of time sitting at the crossing waiting and burning gas.
