search intersecting streets (instead of house number)

Post by karakvuk
Hi,
I would recommend an option to search a street and than instead of a house number, look for a intersecting streets, that would give a better position than inaccurate house numbers.
Regards,
Gabor

It works fine in the UK, using "and" or a comma.

Maybe its only where the road is named in Waze. I'll try to find an example with some un-named segments later.

[EDIT]
It also works with two road names where the roads are not named on Waze. Curiously, the client says that it is a Waze search result (as opposed to Google, Bing etc).

It will even work without something separating the names. I have successfully tried:
  • Manor road and springhead rd
  • Manor road , springhead rd
  • Manor road / springhead rd
  • Manor road springhead rd

does not work on the world server at all :( result gives both streets but does not find the intersection - google and bing have no results (really do not understand what these search engines should do with this)

You can do this already. Just type in "a st and b st" in the client navigation search box with the streets you want.
