Problem: 'avoid ferries' route still suggests them

Hello,

I ran into an issue on Tuesday. I wanted to go to Port-Louis (Morbihan - 56); since there was a night market that day and I know it is hard to park in the area, I wanted to park near the Museum. The problem is that there are two possible names for the Museum: either the “National Maritime Museum” or the “Museum of the East India Company.” I chose the “National Maritime Museum” as my destination. I didn’t notice right away that Waze was redirecting me to a point named “Le Sémaphore” — same location but not the same access on Waze. I was surprised to be going back through Lorient to reach Port Louis (I foolishly followed Waze), and it was only when I arrived at the ferry terminal that I realized the mistake.
I definitely have the route option enabled to avoid ferries, so I am quite surprised to have ended up at the Lorient pier with Waze telling me to take to the sea…

Is this a map issue? The route suggested across the harbor seems to be clearly marked as a ferry route, so it shouldn’t normally be proposed. Or is there just a problem with the naming of the destination? “Le Sémaphore” is linked to the museums; furthermore, the address point doesn’t suggest any nearby parking (even though there is some).

Thanks in advance for your answers.

Hello,

I can’t find any issues regarding the arrival points for the museums on either Waze or Maps.

Hello,

I just checked the app and Waze no longer seems to automatically redirect me to the Sémaphore when I search for the Maritime Museum destination, even though I did take a detour on Tuesday.
Heading towards the Sémaphore, Waze is still trying to make me cross the harbor even though the ‘avoid ferries’ option is checked (screenshot attached).

The Waze entry point for the semaphore was not defined at the Citadelle parking lot.
