pedway
Indoor pedestrian corridor
A pedway is an enclosed elevated walkway connecting buildings, allowing pedestrians to move between structures without going outside.
Common in cities with harsh winters like Minneapolis or Calgary, pedways create networks of climate-controlled passages through downtown cores: We walked to the office through the pedway system.
