Unlock request in Seattle, Washington

Post by playday
Hi Editors,

I would like to be able to edit the following segment(s).
Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Permalink: https://waze.com/en-US/editor?env=usa&l ... s=83265669
Reason: There are many connections that are not shown on the Waze map between the separated east and west side of E Marginal Way S. These connections are under 99, and are therefore not visible with an aerial view. I have a business in the area and it would be very helpful to have these connections shown.
Unlock to level:1
I am level 1.

Thank you in advance,

First I learned how to draw lines on a map. Now I must learn the art of Feng-ShWaze.

I've relocked the segments that needed locking, however your work there is not yet done.
Notice the segments are red?
All segments in Waze must have a name/city name or have the 'none' box checked or they're incomplete and remain unused.
Also, please check the segment types - the segment between the minor highway and street is probably correct as a 'local street' type, but since you've been there ... if traffic shouldn't be using this path under the highway Parking Lot Road would be more appropriate. (I don't see any signs on street view, but I know things have changed recently.)

Thanks!

PS - I would like to see you connected to the community of map editors sharing tips, tricks, and best practices for really making the map work for Wazers. Please reply to this PM to find out more. And remember to check in on the in-editor chat the next time you edit -- introduce yourself as a new editor, and you'll get plenty of help.

We've also got a Discord Chat for WA/Pacific Northwest editors - you can join via https://discord.me/wazenwr ! It's a great way to connect to our Area Managers, State Managers, and Regional Coordinators. We even have a Global Champ or two pop in from time to time!

Remember, the overal goals of the Waze map are Useability, Simplicity and Retention - the fourth link below goes into much more detail.

Welcome to Waze editing and thanks for your help with the map!

Will do ... I'll bring my computer down there so that I can make edits and be sure of exact directions. I'll respond again once I've made the updates.

Thanks for your help!
