Road Closures

This section contains details about road closures currently in place in Waze, usually through disconnecting of segments to prevent Waze from routing along a certain stretch of road. If you perform a closure in Waze, please document it here so other area managers can ensure the roads are reconnected at the appropriate time.

Road Name Editor Closed Date Est Open Date Links and comments

The highway is currently open to all traffic.

KEEP THE FOLLOWING FOR FUTURE REFERENCE:

Area Places for the closure gates should be large in the winter for better app visibility. Shrink the area in the summer.

West-end Gate @ MP61.91

East-end Gate @ MP83.71

Future New or Realigned Roads

Large road construction projects often have website project pages and give notice to the public prior to starting. If we stage these roads in Waze and have them ready to deploy when they open to the public, Waze will be a leader in update map providers.

I-5 @ Exit 24 Fern Valley Interchange (Phoenix) April 2014 - 2016 The Fern Valley interchange is expected to be constructed using a 'crossing' or 'diverging diamond' design that provides a higher capacity to move traffic while requiring lower right-of-way needs.

AlanOfTheBerg has upgraded several area roadways to Major Highway or Minor Highway or Primary Street in order to encourage Waze navigation to more easily accept these alternate routes.

As of September 2015, temporary ramps are in place and most work is away from the active roads.

US20 Pioneer Mountain to Eddyville Phase 3: 2016 ODOT is bypassing a winding section of existing US20. This project has been on-going since 2007. There have been several delays, including landslides and bridge supports being bent, or going out-of-plumb after installation.

Phase 3 started in 2014, estimated to go through 2016. New fill is being added with sensors to detect movement before continuing on with the roadway
