Funded Activity Summary

Rethinking walking infrastructure: AI-assisted footpath network modelling. The project aims to develop new macroscopic and network wide transport modelling and optimisation methodologies specific to walking suitable for large scale footpath network planning applications. The expected outcomes of this project are a novel Artificial Intelligence (AI) assisted tool for automated generation of footpath network attributes, and a set of equilibrium and non-equilibrium seeking walking route choice models driven by real-world individual walking trajectory data. This project will deliver a step-change in transport planning for walking infrastructure that will lead to increased active transport and improved urban infrastructure planning, thereby resulting in significant gains in population and environmental health.
