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.

Posibility to add type of plug and charge speed for EVCS from the app.
Costa Rica is not on the list of countries where Waze has implemented the features for EVCS.
Here are more than 1000 charging stations between L1, L2 and L3 and we have added almost all of them in Waze manually.
We have to introduce all the characteristics of each charging point in the app from the WME.
It would be great if it can be done from the app. Like adding plug type or charging speed. From the application it is not yet possible.2 votes -

voice controll over waze
Voice controll when waze is on and the voice controll is on as well.
Just say "Waze danger", it will ask what kind of danger, you say on road it confirm you say after that car stop, or wheather, fog... etc...
It recognise the item and ask to confirm, you say yes and you made a sign without to watch and manual input the danger.

Suburb borders that add suburbs to segments automatically
Right now, every time we make a new segment on the map, we have to assign it to a suburb manually. Not only is this tedious, but it's prone to mistakes by editors, especially when editing near a suburb border.
But, in many countries, suburbs have a fixed area, and all roads inside that suburb's area will be part of that suburb.
If map editors were able to simply define the borders of each suburb in a state or country, then Waze could automatically assign any segment to the correct suburb, just by checking which suburb's area the segment falls…

Create a separate field for road numbers
Whilst the addition of road shields has been excellent, I do think there should be a separate road number category with the road shield only applying to that instead of the street/alternate names. This will allow for a more accurate result with any addresses that are on roads that have a designated number as well as keeping consistency as sometimes the same address can apply to two different road types.
There had previously been discussions in the UK Waze community Discord regarding road numbers and only using them in the alternate address field. Currently this proposal is on hold due…

d Pedestrian Crossing Zone alert
Hello Waze Team,
I would like to suggest adding a new feature to the list of alerts in the Waze Map Editor (WME): Pedestrian Crossing Zone.
This feature is very important to notify drivers when approaching pedestrian crossings, especially in crowded areas or near hospitals and markets.It is surprising that this alert is not yet available in the hazards list, despite its significant importance for traffic safety and saving lives.
I kindly request you to consider adding this feature in future updates of the Map Editor, so it can also appear in the app as a Pedestrian Crossing Zone…2 votes -
WME Save Button confirmation needed
I would like to suggest that "Confirmation Functionality" gets added to the WME Save button. Because of its location, it very easy to make an unintentional save action and then have to ask for someone at a higher editing level to sort out the error.

Editor-set time penalty on a segment
Waze currently routes by finding the fastest route, considering both the expected travel time and certain penalties. For example, navigating onto a private road adds a 2-hour penalty to the route, effectively forcing travel around that segment unless there is no other route.
My suggestion is that all segments have a Penalty attribute that editors can set in WME. Used thoughtfully, this penalty attribute could give the routing engine a nudge away from areas where, based on editors' local knowledge, traffic should generally not be sent.
For example, if all the segments into a residential neighborhood were assigned a 5…

Allow Map editor Zoom on mouse scroll to be disabled
When editing maps with my Mac and the attached Smart Mouse, the mouse scroll is extremely sensitive. The sensitivity causes the map to zoom in and out un-expectedly. It would be nice to be able to disable the mouse scroll --> zoom feature.
