Abstract
This thesis models a system of
movement. Any space containing
obstacles and needing to be
traversed offers resistance to
whom or whatever may be trying
to navigate it. This resistance transfers directly to inefficiencies of both time and
resources. In the case of a city the problem becomes multiplied by both the number and complexity of
obstacles and is then exponentially
complicated by the number of
individuals and their direction of
travel. Attempting the removal of all obstacles for all involved is futile. The answer lies in offering an alternative to the majority and doing so in a way that encourages its utilization.
