I’ve got a location that I’m finding very difficult to search for and get the Waze Places result.

town + country volkswagen

[https://www.waze.com/editor/?env=usa&lon=-79.30685&lat=43.85289&zoom=6&venues=183959991.1839534369.387472](https://www.waze.com/editor/?env=usa&lon=-79.30685&lat=43.85289&zoom=6&venues=183959991.1839534369.387472)

The user is being directed to the 407 toll road off ramp. I’ve tried adding alternate names (+ vs. and) but no luck. Is the best way to address to submit this form? [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1a-mI3DZvJaSzaL2KGf-mfi4zdCOg6\_n4mftw35oZ7L8/viewform](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1a-mI3DZvJaSzaL2KGf-mfi4zdCOg6_n4mftw35oZ7L8/viewform)

What’s the rationale for favouring GM results?

The issue is with GMap.  
They have a location for this place [here](https://goo.gl/maps/LRpT8SD2Hn32).  
I have added the link between the Waze place and GMap point in beta WME and it may take a couple of days to update but should be fixed after.

Thanks. Glad to hear there is a good solution to this issue in the pipeline.

Hrm… can you recheck to see if it is still routing people incorrectly?

I thought this was already adjusted on GMap’s side.

Looks like the change you submitted yesterday in GMM was published and the same change published again today. I didn’t think Google Maps usually moved markers to suit Waze. GMaps users weren’t being directed to the 407 as was reported in GMM. The GMaps stop point was on Kennedy.

Anyways, all is good. Change is available in Waze.

By the way the Linked Google Places is now available in WME, but to R4 and higher.
