For example, this node in Toronto. If your route heads south on the DVP after this exit, Waze would inform you to use the second from the right lane. If your route headed north on the 404, Waze would use the far right lane.
There are plans, just don't know when it will happen yet

I am getting several cases of lane assignment being lost after a tile update.

In the UK you will probably only find lanes mapped on motorways [Freeways] at locations where the motorway splits (where TIOs are already mapped to ensure you are in the correct lane). You wouldn't find lane guidance mapped at normal exit ramps.
In the case of the hard shoulder being used as a running lane at peak times the hard shoulder normally becomes a permanant lane for the exit ramp. So the number of lanes at the exit will never change.

(I'm sure a UK Champ will correct me if i'm wrong :? )

I have been driving quite a bit lately. Any time there are multiple intersections, lanes doesn't appear in the app any more. This is only about three weeks old. I have tried, with the help of one of our LC's in the US, to delete and re-add the lanes, change the angles, and change the distances of the segments when able, and none have allowed lanes to show in the app. I see lanes everywhere else I have added them on my normal drives, it is just intersections with multiple close segments.

https://www.waze.com/en-US/editor/?env= ... 262&zoom=6

Those are two intersections I drive on a near daily basis where lane guidance is no longer provided.

Lane Guidance works great at that intersection.

Thats Great News! Thanks for the update!

During the webinar it was said that all centercode users will see lanes in the Waze app. What about R4+ editors who are not part of beta app testing program and never registered in centercode? They see lanes in the WME, but what about the app?

They have been testing the timing of the LG popups recently, so I'm thinking the LG on the turnarounds might be keeping the main intersection LG from popping up. I would experiment with temporarily removing the LG from the turnarounds to see if the main intersection starts working again.

Just an update to my report. If you have just one lane at the x-ing it works but if you have two or more lanes you can reproduce that problem. Also this issue is not script related as I mentioned in between.

IMO,
1) the AGC should not be there.
2) The left could possibly be resolved with heuristics.

Do you have a PL to look at?
I think I found it. It's Avenue O'Brien, Montréal (Saint-Laurent), Quebec, Canada:

+1 to @jm6087. That intersection would work just fine as a simple H shape.
