Was the search by name (POI) or by address? Those are two separate markers in google. Or, did you move both of them?

I would suggest you add a PLot segment from Tunnel Rd so they get the last turn instruction.

That's something you do need to ask. Changing just an address marker in google doesn't change the location of the business marker. You should, perhaps, just make sure to change both in google maps.

I'd never really noticed that the address marker and business marker in Google maps could be different. Upon review, the address marker was very close to Chunns Cove Road so I expect that was the problem. I've moved both markers so that should cover the reported problem.

Thanks!

There can be several different business and address markers for the same address in Google Maps, and which one the user gets depends on exactly what they typed for the search (or which one they selected when Waze offered up more than one in its list of search results). And on top of that, you can't necessarily get Map Maker to give you the same pins that you get from Google Maps, so sometimes there are pins you can't move, and I've had very little luck getting anything helpful from Google when trying to get them fixed.

This is honestly the most discouraging thing I've heard since starting with Waze editing.

I already had mixed feelings about volunteering my time to help a company (Google) with the second biggest market capitalization in the US -- bigger than Exxon Mobil -- fix its database. But to volunteer my time to help it find and fix multiple and different incorrect positions for the same address is really pushing my buttons.

On the other hand, now that Waze is Google, maybe I'm just being silly
