Prototyping urban road network routes improves the accessibility of road layouts and enhances people's use of road networks by providing a framework for the analysis and evaluation of routes based on multiple criteria, such as spatial quality, transportation cost and aesthetics. However features identified in this way do not, often, incorporate information about current road condition in order to proactively provide real-time contextual information to users. Context-aware computing has the potential to provide useful information about current road condition by leveraging on contextual information of people, places and things. A prototype, which uses context information and a range of design and user-related criteria to analyse the accessibility of road layouts and plan routes, is developed. A case study is used to validate the prototype.
