I’d change these myself but I am only a Level 1 user :cry: Can someone who is a Level 4 please do the business on these requests?

On the following section of road, the speed limit is 40 from the tree / 40 mark to the bottom of the map, north to the junction of Beat Lane. It is currently set to 60 throughout that section. Street view will confirm.

On this stretch of road the speed limit is 40 and not 30.

A couple more mistakes also discovered:

On this stretch, the speed limit between points A & B are incorrectly showing at 30 one way and 60 the other. It should be 60 both ways:

Here the speed limit changes from 60 to 40 (and vice versa going the other way) but this is not reflected. It is incorrectly showing as 30 in this section all the way between the Cricket Club and Bridge End.

How it should be is as follows:
-2.04535 53.11502 to -2.04405 53.11354 = 60 MPH
-2.04405 53.11354 to -2.04181 53.11205 = 40 MPH
-2.04181 53.11205 in to Leek = 30 MPH

I’ve updated those speed limits for you, and verified almost all the A roads in Leek. I didn’t look for where the speed limits changed at the edges of the town, so you might want to do that.

PS: if you’d like an easier way to report speed limit changes while driving, these two apps might help:

Many thanks, it’s appreciated.

I have also noticed that almost the entire section of road from Ladderedge (outside Westwood Golf Club -2.04026 53.09428) through Longsdon into Endon is incorrect.

Following the road south from -2.04026 53.09428, the speed limit should be as follows:

-2.04017 53.09423 to -2.06525 53.08668 all sections need to be 40 mph
-2.06525 53.08668 to -2.10001 53.08437 all sections need to be 60 mph
-2.10001 53.08437 to -2.10694 53.07924 all sections need to be 40 mph

Also in Endon:
The sections at -2.11930 53.06856 & -2.12114 53.06723 - the road should be 30 both ways (not 30/60).

Back in Leek:
-2.01052 53.10883 to -2.00456 53.11227 all sections need to be 40 mph
-2.00456 53.11227 to -2.00127 53.11657 all sections need to be 60 mph

Sorry to be a pain. I’d do it myself but I’m not allowed :frowning:

Speeds updated on those sections as you described.

By the way, if you see a road that has a speed limit with a [_] Verified checkbox next to it, then that speed was estimated by Waze based on the historical data they have recorded. Ordinary users won’t see these unless they are verified by an editor.
