Hi,

Greece covered over 90% of toll roads. Please enable avoid tolls option for driving directions in Greece.

Many thanks!

Hi Unholy,
Not sure whether the subforums are required (we have extremely little traffic - unfortunately) but nevertheless here are the translations. In some cases they are not word for word but the meaning is the same.

Fellow Greek Wazers: feel free to comment or suggest alternatives.

1. Unlock Requests - Ξεκλειδώματα δρόμων
2. Waze Map Editor - Leave as is.
3. Troubleshooting - Επίλυση Προβλημάτων
4. Map Editing Guidelines for Greece - Βελτιστες Πρακτικές & Οδηγίες για Σχεδιασμό Ελληνικών Χαρτών

The last one actually says Best Practices and Guidelines which i believe is better that just Guidelines.

Let me know if you need anything further.

JK

Hi Unholy,

There are not that many toll roads in Greece, I believe it's about 4-5 "highways" and 2-3 bridges/undersea passes. The total amount of toll stations should be approximately less than 50.

Actually, IMO, there is a bigger chance with routing a wazer from a road mistakenly marked as a toll road rather what you mention.
To avoid that, we have started going through roads and marking only the toll booth sections as toll roads to make sure we have accurate info regarding tolls (there's a respective thread in the forum but I can't locate it from Tapatalk).

So yes, we can guarantee that toll roads will be marked as such due to the small amount of them ( I'll have to look and let you know if they are somewhere listed - Unfortunately the Greek Public sector hasn't really embraced open-data yet but some data is available).

However, is there is a way we could get a mass (country level) report of all roads marked as toll roads, so as to also make sure no road is mistakenly checked as being a toll road?

BR,
JimmyK

I'm working on the error list which i assume has higher priority.
Will get to the tolls afterwards.

Approx 2/3 complete (66,4%) ;->

There are quite a few in Egnatia (E90). Do we have anyone who can verify those?

90+% done!!

I cannot help any more, the rest are near Salonika (& some in Larisa) and in Egnatia so i leave those segments to the "Nothern" wazers who know the area better than me ;->
