Time-Based Turn Restrictions
Currently, the Waze Map Editor does not support time-based turn restrictions. However, this has been confirmed to be a feature that is planned for a future update. In the meantime, the list below can be used to keep track of time-based turn restrictions so they can be easily implemented once the ability to add them is included in the editor.
