Can kortrijkseweg be unlocked? (the red part)
This road is not a major highway but a primary road. I also would like to change some turningrestrictions on this part.

Thanks!

This road is still N43, or did it change?

Just what I wanted to ask…But Peter was just before :shock:

Turn restrictions are not set at all, just an unlock seems appropriate there

Now I have some more time to give you a reaction. Good you find your way to the Belgium forum!

There are a few things done in the wrong way. See the Belgium WIKI (not complete, but some basics are there).

Please change the edits you made over here

  • As you can see above, N43 is a major highway. Same for N36 that’s crossing this street.

  • It’s not N-43 Gentsesteenweg, but N43 - Gentsesteenweg

  • The cityborder between Harelbeke and Beveren (Leie) was not on the correct location. You can check the correct border with the ViaMichelin map.

  • This segment is 2-way now, you never want and go left over here…so it should be a 1-way.

  • Personaly I suggest to use ‘ramps’ for exit and ramps on this location. It will give less problem, that Waze will route you over the exit and back onto the ramp…

  • Remove unnecessary nodes.

If you have some questions, please let us know!

Thanks for the info, i found it a bit weird that a relatively small street would be named a Major Highway as i would think of a road where you could at least drive 90 with a seperation in the middle as a Major highway, for people who know the region, i would call roads like the N60 a major highway but not the N43.
But i guess thats just the way the maps should be edited.

Just edited a few of the points you mentioned, will be updating a bit more later on.

//edit, just to prove a point
The N43 should be a major highway while the expressweg (N382, need to add this) should be a minor highway, while the n382 is a double road with seperation in the middle and has a higher speedlimit.

See this topic for some explanation on route types. It’s partly in Dutch, sorry for our French speaking members.

Hello,

A user has left 3 modifications without city and street names but locked.
Could someone unlock ?

Here is the permalink : https://world.waze.com/editor/?zoom=6&lat=50.82069&lon=4.43001&layers=BFTFTTTFTTFTTTTFTTTTFT&segments=147446543,147446538,147349474

Thank you.

Laurent

I unlocked the roads :wink:

Thank you

I need to unlock one more : https://world.waze.com/editor/?zoom=8&lat=50.81353&lon=4.43453&layers=BFTFTTTFTTFTTTTFTTTTFT&segments=145993487

The reason is that I can not turn the arrow to green.
By the way, it would be interesting to know why.

Thank you.

Laurent

It’s green now :wink:

This is because the segments were locked by an higher ranked editor. You have to do 200.000 edits before reach the level of the editor who locked it… :shock:

No problem … I have only ~198500 more edits to go … :smiley:

Spoorlijn Hasselt-Maastricht ligt volledig fout

https://world.waze.com/editor/?zoom=4&lat=50.88159&lon=5.66428&layers=BFTFTTTFTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=60360822

Spoorlijn unlocked. En hey, binnen Lanaken liggen geen Major Highways, hoor!

Weet ik maar ik kan ze niet editen, ik ging maanden geleden al areamanager mogen zijn maar ze hebben het nooit gedaan.

Btw. ik heb de brug verwijdered naar veldwezelt, aangezien deze ook de komende 6maanden effectief WEG is. De omledingswegen zou ik die als major road aangeven of gewoon street behouden?

Als de nieuwe brug er is voeg ik deze weer toe en de omleiding wegen verwijder/herstel ik weer naar de oorsprongkelijke staat(landwegen: zoals effectief ook weer zal zijn dan)

Ha, zie net dat de Koning Albertlaan een N78a is - dan toch maar Major. Ik zou de omleidingsroutes voor de brug eerst laten zoals ze zijn, Waze vind ze wel als ze verbonden zijn. Zoniet dan inderdaad upgraden. In NL hebben we goede ervaringen met spoorlijnen die als “Walkin Trail” gedefinieerd zijn, dan zijn ze zichtbaar - als ze maar nergens aansluiten op de gewone straten en het liefst een Level -5 hebben.

Ik gebruik de Street to River tool om er landmarks overheen te leggen (functie in de nieuwste versie).

Ziet er best aardig uit:

Can N45 Aalst be unlocked? There is no connection with Olmenstraat + Driehoekstraat, the direction is also wrong

https://world.waze.com/editor/?zoom=7&lat=50.9116&lon=4.03243&layers=BTTFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTFT&segments=88304655

Thank you!

Try to keep it in English guys :geek:

I’m also think we have to use the street to river tool.

Add/leave the railway as ‘railway’, directivity ‘unknown’, lock and you can also set it to level ‘-5’. Select no street and cityname. After that add an extra ‘road’, just beside the railroad. With ‘street 2 river’ change it to a river. I can’t remember exactly, but I thought a width of 5m gives the result of Gerben’s example. Am I right Gerben? After you changed it to an river, you can select it, and change the type to ‘Other’. Give a correct name for the railway. I suggest to do it like this: ‘Antwerpen-Cetraal <-> Lier’. It’s not a high priority, but if we deside to add them, we have to do it all in the same way.

As a source we can use all NMBS stations. Only thing, We have to use the Official citynames as you can find on the Belgium WIKI page. Also in the local language (you find this also in this list for a big part. Rest will follow!). For the 19 ‘gemeenten Brussels hoofdstedelijk gewest’ we only use French to keep it short and clear like: 'Bruxelles-Central <-> Saint-Gilles.

I will add this ‘rule’ to the wiki, if most of us can live with this suggestion…
