Great timing! We’re currently working on being able to select long streches of road. Keep an eye out for updates on the WME.

Thanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

An error occurred while saving the comment Bob McCormick commentedI think this may be better described as a search issue and not really something to do with routing.
Also know that the rural address guidance is a somewhat regional issue in the US. For example, in New England we don't really have unincorporated areas that would follow guidance where the primary city may be blank and the alternate city is the USPS name.
We do have situations though where the USPS name may be different than the city, and USPS names do not necessarily align with municipal boundaries. In VT a lot of USPS names bleed over town lines.
I believe the real issue at hand is how Waze search is working. I would hope that whenever Waze finds a Waze address (that was placed by an editor and not some automated process) it would take priority over everything else -- and that should include searches against all pri and alt streets and cities.
As for the accuracy of Google Maps addresses, in VT we do have lots of scenarios where the GM address locations (passed back to Waze) are incorrect. In some cases it is apparent that the locations are the centroids of property parcels, which may be significantly different than the start of a driveway. This sometimes results in Waze routing to a location that's on the other side of a stream or even hill from where the destination should be, especially for larger parcels.
Google Maps also has a lot of erroneous street info in VT - incorrect names, incorrect placement, etc. We are nearing the end of a project to ensure Waze has every E911 street in VT correctly mapped in WME - when that's done Waze will more accurately reflect the state's roads than Google Maps. I'm sure that's the exception and probably GM for most places has a better representation of accuracy (especially in rural areas) than WME.

An error occurred while saving the comment Bob McCormick commentedThis is a good idea. In some places in Vermont, E911 EMT services are provided by organisations separate from local fire departments. We currently don't have a good category to assign these EMT locations which are staffed typically 24x7.

Great timing! We’re currently working on your suggestion about avoiding seasonal roads. Keep an eye out for updates on the WME.
An error occurred while saving the comment Bob McCormick commentedWe have quite a bit of this in Vermont US - one editor has a spreadsheet of segments and we also put map comments over segments that are closed in the winter time. This takes a significant amount of time each year to maintain - it would be ideal if something could be integral in WME to manage this, and beyond just the ability to put recurring closures on segments. (For example, sometimes opening dates may have to be extended if snow has not been removed - we need to see a list of these types of closures.)

Another example:
Closure is put in for planned roadwords. Then, for one of the days, the construction is postponed for another day.
