Waze Maps Partner Hub

The Waze Maps Partner Hub is a specialized portal designed for professional partners rather than everyday drivers. It serves government agencies (Departments of Transportation), municipalities, event organizers, and news broadcasters. This hub allows these authoritative bodies to input official data directly into the Waze map, ensuring that the millions of drivers using the app have the safest, most official information regarding road statuses.

Tools for Major Events

If a city is hosting a marathon or a stadium concert, traffic chaos is guaranteed. Relieving this, the Partner Hub allows organizers to schedule road closures in advance. These closures are pushed to all Waze users instantly, automatically routing non-event traffic away from the area and guiding attendees to the correct parking lots.

Crisis Response

In times of emergency—like hurricanes, wildfires, or floods—the Partner Hub becomes a critical safety tool. Government partners use it to mark evacuation zones, open shelter locations, and flag flooded roads. This official data overrides standard routing, keeping citizens out of danger zones.

Waze for Broadcasters

TV news traffic reporters use the Hub to access a rich dashboard of local traffic conditions. They can use Waze's real-time data to visualize jams for their morning news segments, providing viewers with accurate commute forecasts before they leave home.
