Fig. 1: Illustration of components of the pednet and trip simulation in a neighborhood in Austin, TX.
From: A link criticality approach for pedestrian network design to promote walking
The existing and candidate pednet links are shown in solid and dashed lines respectively. The shortest paths of two sample OD pairs are shown. D1 is not accessible from O along the existing pednet but becomes accessible when candidate crosswalks are added (thick blue and green lines). D2 is accessible from O in both cases but its shortest path’s length reduces slightly when crosswalks are added (thick blue line) compared to its existing pednet (thick pink line).
