A Star: operator moving speed

Is there a way to change operator's speed depending on its location on the A Star network?

In my model the forklifts are moving faster in the “main road” and slower when they are close to the operational areas. So there are certain areas where the forklifts can move faster. I tried to set the operator’s max speed on the fly (set higher speed when operator enters into certain area/location) but it seems that the moving path and speed is calculated at the start position only.

You could travel to an intermediary location, change the max speed and then travel with the adjusted speed.

Or maybe something like this would work when changing the max speed on the fly:

  1. agv.redirect(newDest, REDIRECT_AS_FINAL);

Tell it to redirect to the same location to make it recalcualte the route with the new speed.
