Dirt Roads
Roads in Mississippi that are dirt or gravel should be classified as such in the editor. This is to maintain proper function of the "Avoid Dirt Roads" feature in the Waze app. This includes roads that are classified by the MDOT as Urban or Rural Collectors.
Roads across farm fields, tree farms, dirt roads across private property also should not be mapped.
Driveways / Private Roads
DO NOT map driveways to single residences UNLESS there is a potential for a routing issue, ie., a user may be routed onto an adjacent street or is a very long drive that may make it difficult for Waze to determine a start point navigating from that address. Even short driveways to 2-3 addresses are typically not necessary for Waze to navigate.
Driveways left over from the original base map import should be deleted.
There are some counties that name or number private drives off of county/state maintained roads and they should be left on the map regardless of the number of houses on the road because their address is based on this name.
See Mississippi/Special roads for guidance in Mississippi that may not be universal to all other states and territories.
