Please unlock [these three segments](https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=5&lat=47.29444&lon=-122.29434&layers=BFTFFTTTTFTTFTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=62776236,61723266,61723264). The ramp doesn’t actually touch westbound state route 18, and no signs to this ramp mention it.

What rank does it needs to be set to?

Rank 3 is fine. Thanks!

I also appreciate your deletion of the very long name of [this ramp segment](https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=5&lat=47.29043&lon=-122.29807&layers=BFTFFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFTT&segments=71341184), which had been, I think, “to I-5 S / SR-161 S / Enchanted Parkway S / Tacoma”. This is one of those cases where letting Waze default to the next ramp’s name (either “to SR-161 S / Enchanted Parkway S” or “to I-5 S / Tacoma”) instead of spewing forth a paragraph of upcoming ramp names will help with navigation.

I drive this ramp daily (except when traffic’s really bad), so I’ll verify over the next few days that Waze’s treatment of naming is working as I expect.

Yeah, that was obnoxious and didn’t follow guidelines at all. There are two separate signs and the names of the following segments were already properly named, so drivers will be told to keep right/left there with the shortened and proper wording.
