WAZE FOR CITIES DATA
Waze data helps cities manage traffic for millions of drivers in real time, and make better informed infrastructure decisions.
Cities can use this data to inform mobility projects and policies, as well as share their own information about street closures or construction directly with citizens.
Partners will soon be able to access Waze for Cities traffic data via Google Cloud – making it possible to store, query and visualize big data sets with tools like BigQuery and Data Studio.
MAKING CARPOOLING EASY
Waze Carpool helps neighbors and coworkers commute better by riding together.
A true community-based carpooling service, Waze Carpool helps city residents get to and from transit stops and fills in gaps in transit networks.
Scalable, affordable, and ready to use today, cities that adopt Waze Carpool benefit from fewer cars on the road and more parking for local businesses.
Waze offers city partners a turn-key marketing kit to promote carpooling, and can help identify routes and neighborhoods likely to benefit from carpooling.
SAFE DRIVING BELOW GROUND
The Waze Beacons Program provides uninterrupted navigation to drivers underground where GPS signals don’t reach, ensuring location services, increased driver safety, and better visibility into traffic flow in and out of tunnels.
Waze Beacons are open sourced, so all GPS providers can take advantage of their technology.
Join the club:
18 cities around the world already use Waze Beacons, including New York City, Boston, Chicago, Pittsburgh, Paris, Haifa, Rio, Brussels, Antwerp, Florence, and Oslo.
REAL-TIME CRISIS COMMUNICATIONS
Waze helps cities get out the word quickly in times of crisis. From road closures to emergency service locations and shelters, Waze is here to help citizens get the information they need during these events.
See it in action:
In September 2017, a devastating earthquake hit Mexico City leaving citizens looking for safety information. Waze, our volunteer Map Editors, government partners, and local media sprang into action. Within three hours, we had added road closures and shelter locations to the Waze map and sent an app alert letting drivers know how to find these locations.
Over 90K Wazers clicked on the alert and nearly 5K citizens used Waze to navigate to a shelter.

FAQ
We believe the best mobility solutions come from working together, so we don’t charge for our partner programs.
Partenerii au acces la instrumente exclusive pentru introducerea datelor privind drumurile incluse și anunțarea evenimentelor sau urgențelor ce perturbă traficul. Partenerii sunt, de asemenea, invitați să se alăture unui forum online, ce are ca scop facilitarea colaborării și oferirea unui spațiu unde se pot discuta probleme de strategice și operaționale.
Waze’s primary goal is to be your partner in mobility. That means getting Waze-reported incident data to government officials who can help, whether it’s a five-car pile-up or a pothole. It means getting data from government partners to ensure Waze drivers have the best real-time, location-based information about what’s happening in their communities. And of course helping cities improve congestion, sustainability, and access through carpooling.

Waze works with cities that want to reduce single-occupancy vehicle trips by providing a platform for a community-based carpooling service that connects neighbors, and coworkers going the same way. Cities help promote carpooling among other sustainable, congestion-fighting modes of transportation. Waze can also work with cities to help test incentives and messaging to promote the shift to carpooling. And Carpool partner cities also have access to insights about parts of their city and region where carpooling is growing to help with planning and resource allocation.
