Mechanical and material engineers worked together to design the walkway material to be self-repairing and self-healing. There are 4 lanes that move at different speeds. Accommodating benches exist for the few people who cannot walk or stand well for example: babies, young children and their caregivers. These benches merge into the slow pathway when the occupant is ready to move. To prevent failure of the walkways, mechanical and systems engineers have incorporated Artificial Intelligence computational modeling and sound/stress sensors which predict mechanical failures more than two days in advance. Walkways are independently controlled and monitored in real time by on-site systems that report to a central quantum computer system with local and remote, real time backup. Prediction and preventive maintenance avert any surprises or emergencies including black-swan
