  2. Add passes or permits at driving prohibited restrictions

    Currently, WME can only select passes or permits under the following rules in the restriction of roads
    -Driving is “allowed” for
    -Driving is “toll free” for

    We suggest that passes or permits can also be selected for the following rules
    -Driving is “prohibited” for

    This change would allow local rules in your country to be applied even in local countries that do not have their own passes or permits.

    For example, in Japan, there are some public roads that cannot be passed due to motorcycle engine displacement. By setting passes or permits for prohibited rules, local rules can be incorporated…

  3. In Greenville, WI, most of our address start with a letter in front of the number.

    In Greenville, WI, most of our addresses start with a letter in front of the number (e.g., W6000 Greenville Dr). Can you allow letters in the street number to ensure accuracy?

  4. Avoid ZTL (Italy), Limited Traffic Zone.

    There's only "Add ZTL pass" option, but it would be nice to be able to select "Avoid ZTL".

  5. Setting Issues Tracker filter as default should also select it

    If a user marks an Issue Tracker as default, obviously he/she means to use it. So, select the marked filter at once, no need to do it as a separate step.

  7. Multi-Select Option for Place Services

    Current Functionality:
    Services for a place are set with a yes/no checkbox. If a place has a service, editors check the box. Otherwise, the service's box is left unchecked.

    Proposed Functionality:
    Services for a place are set with choice chips for Yes, Unknown, and No. Unknown is selected by default. If a place has a service, editors select Yes. If a place doesn't have a service, editors select No. If editors are unsure or otherwise don't check, the default Unknown is left selected.

    Reasoning:
    The current system is somewhat ambiguous for editors. My own interpretation and expectation of the current…

  8. Conduciendo con ruteo, poder cerrar calles laterales, o transversales a la ruta

    Cuando conduces con ruteo, y cruzas una calle cerrada pero que no aparece como cerrada en la pantalla, solo puedes cerrar el segmento siguiente en tu ruta, para poder hacer ese cierre, debes "detener" tu ruteo, ahí empezar el proceso de cierre donde sí te aparece en la pantalla todas las posibilidades y hacer el cierre. Luego hay que volver a solicitar nuevamente ruta a nuestro destino. Si bien como está ahora facilita cerrar lo que tenemos delante de forma muy agil, acceder a esa posibilidad estaría interesante, ayudaría a mucha gente, no solo a los que usan Waze sin…

  11. Improve satelite image

  13. Better WME ranking system

    It is very hard for newcomers in WME to be able to contribute as much as they wanted due to the ranking system that doesn't allow to do much at first. It is very hard to get to at least level 3 which allows to alter some segments in the driving area and it is almost impossible without hunting for missing POIs or stuff like that. There aren't always many editors with higher ranks and sometimes they can get overwhelmed by the editing tasks and opened map problems.
    There should be a better system in place that would allow newcomers…

  14. 2D Hazards

    I'm not sure if this sort of thing will be covered in Permanent Hazards development, but it would be very handy to be able to define an area polygon to which a hazard report would apply.
    To me, the obvious application would be for prolonged construction zones where roads remain open but users ought to be made aware of an issue ahead.
    How I see this working:
    An editor would draw a polygon over the affected area and then choose a hazard type and add an optional comment to the polygon. It should be possible to define schedules and an…

  15. Show RPP PUR's on feed list

    There is no privacy issue involved here.

    There's simply a pin in the map, among many others, but I can't find them like any others, just because category is "residential"

    The privacy issues are solved by the already omitted creator/updater of the place. By not showing them, you are simply making it harder for the PUR be moderated, as we have to scan the map or rely on scripts to do that.

    So, plainly: RPP PUR's should be shown in feed list just as any other PUR.

    OBS: Previous discussion took place here: https://www.waze.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=211&t=249211&p=1774596#p1774596

  16. Drive to Feature on Cartouche

    While editing the map I would like a separate layer so that I can make notes and pin it to areas of the map that I would like to visit. These online notes should only be viewable by the user who made the notes. It would also be necessesary to navigate to these Points of Interest and have the notes pop up so that pictures can be taken of the surrounding so that the Waze map can reflect real world situations out there on the road.

    The Waze notes layer (home computer) and the Android phone should be synced so…

  17. Color-coded according to speed in editor

    A feature that had been good when you are editing speed limits would be to go into a "Edit mode for the speed limit" just as the house number.
    That all roads would be color-coded according to speed. and roads with no speed would be gray, so you can easily see which roads have the limitation and which have not.

    Another thing that would be great is that you can put limits whereever on the road and not just at a crossing. Again, just as the house number.

  18. Vehicle restricted closures

    Now: the closures are for all vehicles.

    SUG: possibility of applying a closure for a certain type of vehicle and not for others, for example: closures only for taxis.

  19. Parking Lots: Show Payment Types only when needed

    Please consider showing the 11 payment types checkboxes only when the "Cost" dropdown has "Low", "Moderate" or "Expensive" selected.

    This will help you to have consistent information too: For example, what does it mean that a free parking log accepts Credit Cards as a payment type?
