The present disclosure is directed to methods and apparatus for providing directions to user devices that belong to pedestrians or to individuals traveling on pedestrian pathways. Pedestrians or other users of user devices wishing to travel along pedestrian pathways toward a destination may be provided instructions according to a criterion, a basic assumption, or a rule. While commonly such criteria may relate to providing individuals with directions to walk from a current location to a specified destination in a minimal time, methods and apparatus consistent with the present disclosure may also allow for a user to specify other rules or criteria that are consistent with one or more objectives or parameters specified by that user. To accomplish this, information may be received from user devices and instructions may be sent to those user devices as users of those user devices progress toward respective destinations.
