A moving walkway (British English) or moving sidewalk (American English) (colloquially sometimes horizontalator, travelator, horizontal escalator, walkalator, autowalk, movator, slidewalk) is a slow moving conveyor mechanism that transports people across a horizontal or inclined plane over a short to medium distance. Moving walkways can be used by standing or walking on them. They are often installed in pairs, one for each direction.

“But when with moving accents thou
Shalt constant faith and service vow,
Thy Celia shall receive those charms
With open ears, and with unfolded arms.”
