Hi! I work in the marketing department of my institution, BARNA, and we have included the location of our new headquarters in Waze to make it easier to get to the site. I read that it is necessary for volunteers to approve the new location. I would appreciate your help in speeding up the approval. Thanks!
Hello. I located the request on Gregorio Luperón Avenue, right next to Almacenes CCN. It is approved and will be updated in the app in two days.
On another note, please confirm if there is also access via Juan Ballenilla Street.
Hi!! Thank you so much!!
For now, entry and exit will only be through Luperón Avenue. Can this be edited in the future if other entrances are opened?
Yes, it can be enabled in the future if another access is opened. You just need to open a report from the app or write back here, and one of the WazeDom volunteer editors will be happy to help you.
Thank you so much, that’s very kind. I’ll keep an eye on the app to see if it shows up as an option yet.
Hello again!
First, I would like to thank you so much for your support in updating the location. I have added a request to include “BARNA nueva sede” as an alternative name to distinguish it from the Naco branch (which will continue to operate for the next 2 weeks), but I do need to delete “BBA Barna” (since it is no longer there; they handed over the premises last week) and “BARNA Centro Pymes.”
Or “BARNA Luperón” (as an alternative name; what I want is for it to show up immediately if someone searches for “barna luperon”).
I wish I could edit it myself, but I can’t.
Thanks!!
Hi, greetings once again.
Regarding the Luperón location: I added the alternative names “Barna Luperón” and “Barna Nueva Sede”. I also created the place on Google Maps (since it didn’t exist) and I will link it to the Waze location so they appear as a single place, as Waze also shows results for places that exist on Google Maps.
Regarding the BBA Barna branch (Freddy Prestol Castillo Street, in Acrópolis), that one is only on Google Maps and is the result shown in Waze. Should I mark it as permanently closed at that location on Google Maps?
Centro Pymes Barna (existing on Waze and Google Maps) at 34 John F. Kennedy Avenue, should it be deleted on Waze and marked as permanently closed on Google Maps?
Please let me know about these details so I can proceed with the edits.
Hi!
“I also created the place on Google Maps (since it didn’t exist) and I will link it to the Waze location so they appear as a single place, as Waze also shows results from existing places on Google Maps.”
In this case, I have access to edit the Barna Heriberto location on Google Maps; since you created the new location on Google Maps, I would like to know if by editing this location over there, they could be unified as one.
Regarding the BBA Barna branch (Freddy Prestol Castillo Street, in Acrópolis), that one is only on Google Maps and is the result shown in Waze. Should I delete it from Google Maps? Yes, in both.
Centro Pymes Barna (existing on Waze and Google Maps) on 34 John F. Kennedy Avenue, should it be deleted on both platforms? Yes, in both.
Ok. In Waze I deleted the locations that existed on Kennedy (Heriberto) and in Acrópolis, so now only the ones on Luperón and in Santiago remain (which I created today and linked to the Google Maps Santiago location).
In Google Maps, I requested the move to Luperón, but it hasn’t been approved yet. Can you try requesting it as the site administrator in Google Maps? If that goes through, then I can link the Waze location with the Google one, so it shows them as a single result in Waze.
Another thing, I saw that on the Barna Management School website they still haven’t updated the information for the new location on Luperón (see attached image).
I’ll be following up on this, and for any additional help you can write to us at wazedom@gmail.com
Thank you so much!!
Yes, we will proceed to update the address on the website and Maps starting Tuesday, as we will already be operating there by then, so people can still find us until that date.
Thanks a million!!
