Whilst living in London, and trying to leg it to my second job, I used to find Oxford Street virtually impassable in a hurry.
Given the number of smartphones out there these days, and the possibility of better GPS accuracy, one way or another, then I should be able to log a "flight plan" kind of thing
in, and some software would show my route.
For example I log in give the "oh bugger, I have to get across Oxford St, then hang a right, leg it down to Oxford Circus (? I forget) and do that in 8 minutes".
As for the past data, it should be able to show Mr X's [traditional path] down that side of Oxford St, going out to get a cappuccino at [traditional time] and work around him.

You've missed out the active air-traffic-control function - I presume this would be implemented by closing Oxford Street to all pedestrians not packing an appropriate app, which app would then guide them harmlessly around each other with beautifully co-ordinated pokemon-go lures. Of course anyone momentarily looking up from their phone would be doomed. |
