Incorrect routing to addresses matching Alternative Street names. This issue occurs when closeby another street exists with the same name as the alternative name.

Example

Routing-alt-name-1.png

Destination IJzerlaan 38, Antwerpen

The main road is N1-IJzerlaan, alternative name IJzerlaan.
North of the canal lies a street with the name IJzerlaan.

If the entered destination of a house number or Residential Place lies on the main road, the app will indicate the endpoint in a correctly but the routing leads to the road named IJzerlaan, north of the canal.

Solution

This issue can be prevented by adding a RPP with a “Entry-/exit- point”.


Without the Entry/exit point the routing passes the destination, while with the Entry/exit point the routing delivers the Waze at the correct location.
