Introduction
Entering speed limits has been enabled. As always this is a generalised description, inform yourself about local guidelines in your country. If local guidelines can't be found or are unclear contact a state or country manager.
Entering Limits
Phased roll-out
The roll-out of speed limits is planned in three phases, as explained below:
- Phase 1 - initial speed limit data (by community)
- Minimum 10 000 segments on a localized area (e.g. city)
- With all types of roads
- Most importantly all types of speeds that exist in the country should be present.
- Phase 2 - prediction algorithm (by Waze)
- Wait for the Waze Team to generate Speed Limit predictions for all the country / metro. This takes a few business days
- Phase 3 - speed limit verification (by community)
- Verify the inserted speed limits by the Waze algorithm (use the ‘Verify’ checkbox inside the Editor). Focus on high speed roads (Freeways, Major Highways, Minor Highways).
Tips & tricks
- Do not include multiple road types in one selection or the speed limit text boxes will be unavailable.
Scripts
The following external scripts can aid with entering speed limits. [Insert link to explaination about scripts]
- WME Speedhelper
- Designed to simplify the input of the speed limits
- https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/13774-wme-speedhelper
- WME Speeds
- Can be used to visualise where the Speed Limits have been added.
- Shows the Speed Limit of each segment using a color code.

- WME Color Highlights
- Version 2.3 (and later) supports highlighting of segments without verified speed limits.
