The feature is indeed enabled by country,
You can reach out to your SCM explaining what's the use case, so we can understand if the restricted areas are the right tool to address it.
 
Once understood we can proceed from there.

Thank you!

 

Hello, so after speaking with the community managers, it seems that the request for the dangerous areas alerts need official government intervention. I will however try to liaise with the respective authorities in my country to see if i can get that approval.

If this is a required feature you should probably discuss it in the New Zealand specific forum and/or contact your community leadership who can request this gets activated via your Community Manager.

Hi!

We have started to look into this in Sweden as we today have one restricted area in Stockholm, or rather a street, Hornsgatan, https://www.waze.com/sv/editor?env=row& ... ,257938048

One more thing to handle here is that it is allowed to cross the street but not drive on it, is that possible to solve as it is designed today? Marking it as one complete zone will block crossing the street I guess? Adding a zone for each segment maybe but that will result in many passes for the user to add in the app?

Second, are the passes created via this WME-tool or are they created elsewhere?

What is TBS?

Even restricting only the specific segment will restrict also driving through it.
So i am not sure we have to day a solution for your use case.

Thanks for the feedback, just to elaborate my example of a solution and connected to your feedback:

If we created two separate zones on street "Hornsgatan" (red rectangles), not including the crossing street "Lignagatan", crossing street "Hornsgatan" will not be affected or?

E.g. passing through on Hornsgatan will not be possible if you do not have a pass, but crossing it will.

I know that this proposed solution will create many passes to cover the complete street/zone, but the logic should work or?

Any chance for New Zealand to get this soon?

Are restricted areas functional when embedded into another restricted area?
Location of two smalls areas embedded in a large area: https://waze.com/fr/editor?env=row&lon= ... 80.1069767
The small areas are apparently not operational.
Several URs, and "Route Speed" script disregards the small areas.
 

Do you mean that, if the user is allowed to drive in the external area, he will not receive a popup if he is not allowed to drive into the internal (embedded) area?

Is it working in the app together with passes for exceptions?
WME alone is useless.

Hi,
please make the locklevel editable for users. At the moment the areas in Austria are L4 (don't know if we requested a change L5->L4 as default), but the locklevel cannot be changed (by me, L6 editor).
The only useful setting is a default which can be freely changed (like you did with the speed cams some years ago).

thanks
