Highway 169 Road closure 1/23/2017 through 10/2017

Post by CraigDavisSpeedy06
Hello Waze Editors,

I have been having a problem the past two days where Waze is trying to route me through a closed section of Highway 169. "Both directions of Hwy 169 between Bren Rd and 7th St. (5th St, Lincoln Dr.) are closed as the Nine Mile Creek bridge is replaced"

This has not been a problem since January, so the road closure must have been recently removed from Waze. I went on the Waze Map Editor and it looks like adding this road closure will require at least a level 4 editor.

Please get this fixed as soon as possible, this is a major highway closure and the official detours are very far from the point of road closure. If heading northbound, the official detour is: EB Hwy 62, NB Hwy 100, WB I-394 to Hwy 169. If you make it to the 169 road closure using Waze, one would need to turn around and head back south on 169 to use the official detour.
