Hi all

We have now got or own Waze abbreviation list for NZ

To edit this list I submit to WazeHQ via Google Sheet any changes

The list submitted to waze is based on AS/NZS 4819:2011 and is found here

Note: I have Included SH (State Highway) as I feel its quite important

There are others that are a level below that I and hesitant to add that are not in AS/NZS 4819:2011

Thoughts?

Thanks for that.
I will update my script to reflect changes.

We might want to do some tests before we get too carried away

I want to test SH

We need to clear our phone cache before any tests

Sure thing, I have been doing smaller changes like lane etc.
Will be good to find out how long it takes from submission to hearing the end result.
