PEDESTRIAN NETWORK DESIGN AND OPTIMISATION BASED ON PEDESTRIAN SHORTCUTS AND NEEDS
Original language description
We have designed a new approach to build an optimal pedestrian network. Modelling and building optimal walkway network is a big challenge. It is a complex task, which generally get more complicated with increased functionality and size of a city. In thisstudy is walkway network considered as optimal, when no shortcuts are used by pedestrians to reach their target location. Pedestrian shortcuts are also understood as a tool for walkway network optimisation. Optimisation of walkway network also includessimplification and shaping. There have been investigated shortcuts in cities Olomouc and Ostrava. Focus has been taken on the surrounding environment of shortcuts and proportion of the initial and shortened distance. We found that there are regularly taken shortcuts by pedestrian when at least 18% of the original walkway distance is shortened. Also we found that there are two exceptions. Firstly, at the edges of rectangular parts and at right angles of the network are made short paths. S
