When driving on the highlighted segment (Tunnel Trône) if you need to exit on the right Waze will indicate the street name (R20a Avenue Marnix) whereas the indications on the road are totally different (panels indicate “Ring, Airport, Communauté européene…” : see image attached).
For somebody not used to drive on this road, “R20a Avenue Marnix” is unknown to him and on top of it, a few dozens meters before, there is another exit for … “R20a Avenue Marnix”.
So I think a few directions should also be mentioned in the street name to make directions more explicit.
I think your are not on the good forum;
Right one is https://www.waze.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=149
But to answer, Waze use the street names to navigate and not the direction he follows.
To have an instruction like turn right direction airport, the street name should be airport.
I think the problem is the same with every navigation system.
Maybe someone have an idea?
I understand your points but why should we do it for Highways’ exits and not for this particular case ? I don’t know if you’ve ever entered brussels using the E40 but I highly appreciate the road segments are labelled with what is on the panels, otherwise you would be confused as to which segment you should choose: they are almost all parallel. I think the problem I’m reporting is exactly the same situation.
I understand your point but I really don’t know what to say.
Implementing what you propose would lead to give artificial names to certain streets. In the first example you gave, the segment “R20a Avenue Marnix” would become “Ring, Airport, Communauté européene” or something like that.
I personally believe that this would be really strange and lead to a lot of confusion at least in the editor.
I think that we need the advice of Steven for this question.
For some reason I don’t get notified for posts in this forum so sorry to reply so late…
Well we’re almost there. I like the current “R20a di Trône-Troon, Bruxelles | Brussel, Belgium”, except that what’s after “di” is not what you can read on the panels (see image at the beginning of this thread). “Trône-Troon” is the name of the tunnel if you turn left but if you exit by using this highlighted segment, you don’t take the tunnel, you take the exit toward “Ring, Airport, Communauté européenne”.
So I would rather call this short segment with one of these names:
“R20a di Ring, Bruxelles | Brussel, Belgium”
“R20a di Ring, Airport, Communauté européenne, Bruxelles | Brussel, Belgium”
