Can kortrijkseweg be unlocked? (the red part)
This road is not a major highway but a primary road. I also would like to change some turningrestrictions on this part.

Now I have some more time to give you a reaction. Good you find your way to the Belgium forum!

...

If you have some questions, please let us know!
Thanks for the info, i found it a bit weird that a relatively small street would be named a Major Highway as i would think of a road where you could at least drive 90 with a seperation in the middle as a Major highway, for people who know the region, i would call roads like the N60 a major highway but not the N43.
But i guess thats just the way the maps should be edited.

Just edited a few of the points you mentioned, will be updating a bit more later on.

Grtz

//edit, just to prove a point
The N43 should be a major highway while the expressweg (N382, need to add this) should be a minor highway, while the n382 is a double road with seperation in the middle and has a higher speedlimit.

Could someone unlock this street (or adjust it)
While the crossroad is a bit off, the ooigemstraat and liebaardstraat should be connected without the little bit of nieuwstraat in between.
The reason for this is the directions you get. It says turn right then left, i find this a bit confusing since you want to go straight.

Could somebody either unlock the N43 or rename the city from Beveren (Leie) to Beveren-Leie, i have already named a bunch of roads around there.
This is how it should be named according to a paper map i have here from the city. (as well as wikipedia link)

Thanks


//edit
Some other problem i had last week was driving on this part https://world.waze.com/editor/?zoom=5&l ... TTTTTTTTFT
Waze was showing the route coming from the south on the tieltstraat, turning into brouwerijstraat.
However waze did not recognize that as a turn and simple assumed that was a twist in the road (and because of that never said turn right, so i passed the turn) how can i make sure that it says turn right there? (I assume if i needed routing that would continue on the tieltstraat it would have said turn left at brouwerijstraat)
I hope i made the problem clear enough

I think you didn't read the sticky topics about citynames and the Belgium wiki. This is how it should be written! :-)

So please change the roads with the correct cityname...
I had read it and also checked the via michelin map, which also said beveren-leie, but i didnt read the part where the waze names arent the same.
Does anyone know where that list of names came from and why they are different from the naming that you can find on every other map?

I've seen it yesterday (I'm AM for that region since yesterday).
I named the roads, wich may convince Waze it is a turn. Maybe the TR weren't OK when the last update went live, but now they're alright.

If the problem persists after the next update (check status.waze.com for the timing) let me know.
I'll let you know when i pass there again in a few weeks :)

This list is based on the Belgium post list. We customised it at some points.

If you look as example for Beveren-leie in gmaps, you won't find it. On gmaps it's Beveren, Warengem. So your statement is incorrect. Belgium post has à nice and complete list. No double names that can give problems. So with this list everybody knows what cityname to use...you can use zipcode instead of cityname to find out the correct cityname, etc.....
I'd still have to disagree though, it's not that i want to be annoying or anything ;) but i do believe that the only valid name should be the one thats on the streetsigns as well google street view
So when you see a streetsign waze should show the same cityname.

There is also a Beveren (Roeselare) in the list of city names, that one is correct though street view beveren roeselare
So if its the parent city you want to show it should be Beveren-Leie (Waregem)

Is het mogelijk om de straten rondom mij te unlocken? Er zijn nl. enkele foute rijrichtingen en er ontbreken hier en daar straten.

Is het mogelijk om voor de flitspaal op de E19 richting Brussel een grotere radius in te stellen?

Op dit moment gebeurt het volgende:
Je gaat de tunnel in vanop de ring in Antwerpen, daar verlies je je GPS signaal. Bij het uitrijden van de tunnel komt het signaal net terug op het moment dat je de flitspaal passeert...
