Fixed Speed Cameras, Traffic Lights, reporting Features
Give wazers the ability to report that there are fixed cameras at some locations and not only mobile police cameras. Also, we should be able to report that there are traffic lights here and there. There's an option to report a broken traffic light but wazers don't have the ability to report that this place has traffic light so we see it on the map. At each traffic light too, there are speed cameras so we should be able to report and get all these shown. when we choose fixed cameras they should be there permanently but mobile cameras means…

Route by best value rather than fastest route
Waze has, on multiple occasions, suggested long detours that are expected to only be a few minutes faster. When you consider the fuel-costs, cost to operate, etc. this is equivalent to paying a toll to save a few minutes.
If a wazer could specify the value of their time and the cost of operating their vehicle then the route planning could find the route with the lowest cost (cost being value of one minute X duration of drive plus operating cost X length of drive).
Since many wazers might not understand how to determine the correct value for their time…

change/adapt default average speed assigned to a segment for itinerary calculation
Hello,
Using the script "road speed", I can see what are the average speed used for route calculation on every segment.
I'm working on the map in Rwanda, Africa. Here, the major/minor highway may sometime be unpaved road. On these road, the driving speed never exceed 20-30 kph. However, by default, the speed on these "major highway" segment asigned by waze is 60-80 kph, which induce huge difference in the ETA.
Of course, in cities or in the main roads where there is a lot of wazer traffic, this is automatically adapted thanks to the users. But in less populated…

Differentiate between area map comments and point comments
It would be great if it would be made possible to select to only see point map comments and/or area map comments.
Area map comments are quite intrusive, leading to a lot of editors switching off the comment layer. As a result they sometimes miss useful information and make unnecessary edits.
If you can choose to only see one type of comment, that would be very helpful.

Routes in a Junction Box should have different gradients of colors
When selecting a segment entering a Junction Box all possible routes are shown with a green color when the route is valid and red when it is invalid/forbidden. These routes can be mixed and sharing the same segment. To see which segments belong to specific routes the editor must hover the mouse pointer to the exiting arrow. The idea here is to be able to visualize without doubt each route (for instance, when sharing the JB screenshot)

Trajectcontrole
Hallo,
Zou het ook mogelijk kunnen zijn om bij trajectcontrole een andere kleur weg te maken zolang de trajectcontrole duurt?

Parking along with the Parking area code and Charging info would be helpful
Showing the nearest Parking close to destination is Cool, would be good to also see the Parking area code and if that has Charging points (wherever applicable) -
I am in Stockholm, I usually have to struggle understanding the parking code, for which I can check the charges before I travel.
With Electric cars becoming more popular, it would be great to have the Parking code combined with a Mark highlighting if cars can be charged.
Example Stockholm P - which allows free charging or Mer or Incharge which are paid. This info will be really helpful.
That way can…5 votes -
Hallo. Wäre ein Option für Grenzübergang zu sperren nicht schlecht.
Hallo. Wäre ein Option für Grenzübergang zu sperren nicht schlecht.
Mit Einsatzfahrzeug darf ich nicht über die Grenze fahren, aber manchmal führt die Navi mich dort durch. Und manchmal verbietet auch keine andere Option.
Wie ich mich errinere, in iGo Navigation war diese Option verfügbar.
Ich glaube könnten wir hier auch nutzen.5 votes -

Allow editors to view restrictions (view only) regardless of their lock level.
Allow editors to view segment restrictions (view only) regardless of their lock level. This would be informative and a learning tool as to how advanced editors set up segment restrictions correctly.

Safety Concern: Missing Stop Sign Display in Waze
Although stop signs exist at certain locations, they are not displayed in Waze.
This lack of support may cause drivers—especially those unfamiliar with the area—to overlook stop points, creating safety concerns.
If Waze Map Editors could directly add stop signs within the editor interface, such issues could be resolved more efficiently.
For improved safety and map accuracy, please consider adding a feature that allows editors to place stop signs directly.5 votes -
Option for not enabling Closed updates layer when opening UR
The latest version of WME will now enable the Closed updates layer when opening a UR. Many editors don't want or need this, so I am suggesting a toggle (setting) to prevent this from occurring.

Allow assigning house numbers from the map while there.
I go a lot of places and the house numbers in some areas are either nonexistent or just plain wrong. It would be nice to edit the map while on the street with the house numbers.

Add Slope / Tilt Penalty
Add a route penalty option for streets with pronounced slopes that can become dangerous (whether due to vehicle capacity or atmospheric conditions). Such an option should have various levels of penalties depending on the tilt angle.

Return to Home in WME Nav Tabs
This is a small feature to add to the Nav Tabs in the top left of WME, but as I've had my region enlarged as an AM, I find myself further and further away from my main city doing edits and I have to zoom out and drag quite a lot to get back to my city. I would LOVE a simple "Home" icon in the Nav Tabs to zoom me back to a specific spot on the map. Currently my work around is to load my drives and click on a recent drive which brings me close at least.

conditional tolls
There are some toll segments that go pretty paralell to the public roads, so time savings are more related to traffic (<5 min when comparing vs toll roads).
Waze always will choose the toll segment but for a regular wazer time savings will not be enough to use toll vs public road.
A conditional that let waze to avoid tolls when savings are less than X minutes will help wazers pockets.4 votes
