Nextdoor announces partnership with Waze

Nextdoor (NXDR) Holdings announced a partnership with Waze to bring real-time traffic and road alerts to Nextdoor Alerts. In July Nextdoor introduced real-time alerts to keep neighbors safe and prepared as part of the new Nextdoor. This integration enhances Nextdoor’s core value proposition of helping neighbors stay informed and get things done by adding a critical layer of real-time awareness to the daily routines and safety conversations already happening on the platform. Nextdoor neighbors in the US will now receive traffic and road alerts within the platform, including accidents, road closures, hazards and traffic light outages. When the alert is received, neighbors can view the information on the map and discuss the incident with neighbors on Nextdoor. The Waze traffic alert provides real-time information on a map where Nextdoor’s network of neighbors can provide neighbor specific updates to one another.
