Pedestrian Boardwalk
Pedestrian Boardwalk (PB) is one of the non-drivable road types. Because Waze is only designed to use in a car, Pedestrian Boardwalks are often not necessary. PB's are used for 'roads' that are inaccessible by car and that don't have a possible destination.
- Bicycle paths
- Walking paths
In the following cases, PB's can or should be added to the map:
- if navigation is unclear without them
- if the map is unclear without them
- if it can lead users to and from a Parking Lot Place. This is to allow Waze to estimate better walking times to parking lots.
- This road type is not used to add house numbers, if the non-drivable road has destinations use road type walking trail instead.

- Despite the fact that it has become impossible to set junction arrows for PB's it's still possible to have an 'Isolated segment' error when you save. This error can be ignored.
