| | == Best practices and examples == |
| Lane guidance is a new Waze app feature that shows the user exactly which lanes they should use to make their next movement. This feature boosts Wazer confidence by providing reassurance in junctions both typical and unusual.
| | === At-grade connectors and Lanes === |
| Lane guidance data is added via the [[Waze Map Editor|Waze Map Editor (WME)]]. When a single segment is selected in the WME, an additional tab called Lanes is available. The Lanes tab allows map editors to tell Waze which lane to display to the driver for lane guidance in the mobile app. <br>
| | First and foremost, the existing [[At-grade_connectors]](AGCs) guidance must be considered. The addition of Lanes data won't impact the necessity of using AGCs in most cases. |
| | | ==== Preserving AGCs while adding Lanes ==== |
| There are some important considerations regarding lane guidance in Waze:
| | In instances where the AGCs are preserved, Lanes data should be added to the segment approaching the AGC and the next segment approaching the intersection. Additionally, lanes data |
| * '''Lane guidance does not affect routing''' - it is merely a visual feature.
| |
| * '''Lane guidance does not affect audio instructions''', with the exception of u-turn instructions resulting from [[#Lanes on divided roadways (“H” and “#” intersections)|heuristics for intersections on divided roads]].
| |
| * '''Lane guidance will only be displayed when a navigation instruction is given.''' If the [[How_Waze_determines_turn_/_keep_/_exit_maneuvers#Best_Continuation|best continuation]] is straight ahead, lane guidance will not be shown, unless there is a [[Turn_instruction_override|continue straight TIO]].
