Road closures

Post by cherisam
Hi, I was one of the earlier users of waze way back in 2010 and did quite a bit of the mapping of Delhi then. I've come back after a long hiatus and seem to have lost quite a bit of my user rights as well as my knowledge of how to use the WME. My particular question is about road closures...roads are being randomly closed in Delhi on because of the rampant road and metro construction. Below, please find a permalink for a road that's been closed for a few months now. How do I map that on to waze? I understand I have to get the segments unlocked

Below is another segment where a diversion has come into effect to improve traffic flow. I've added a restriction there..I'd like to know if it's been done right.
Thanks in advance

Hard to make out when exactly the roads will be opened...might be sooner rather than later. It's usually one or two permissions or a court order that are responsible for the delay

Welcome back! Editing access expires after some time not having driven there. we hope we can provide you with all the new developed knowledge about editing in India during the current mentoring map raid :) .

Temporary Road closures are best added with the Closure feature. However, this is available only for level 5+. You can always put a request in this forum topic for your fellow senior editors who will do it for you. We will update the forum in the coming weeks too, to meet the needs.


What should be included in my post?

1. Include the location in the topic of your post
City, and Street (if known)

2. The desired change.
Description of your request. For a closure it would be: start date, end date, reason

3. Permalink
A permalink of the location, to be sure we use the correct segments. How to make a permalink is described in our wiki.

I don´t see a restriction in this area. Can you describe what is necessary?

thank you cherisam. All are in the map now for 6 months. But with this length of closure, i think we can better disconnect the segments if you are sure

Ok. Would you please put a reminder here in the beginning of October if the closures need to be extended?

I really tried to find the segment, but can't trace it. can you make a permalink from WME with the segment(s) included? Here is an explanation: https://wiki.waze.com/wiki/India_Quickstart#Permalinks
