Abstract
To my knowledge the elevators being installed in the newest buildings still operate the same as the elevators installed in the oldest buildings. My invention improves the operation by changing one half of the elevators to stop only at the odd floors of a building. The people going to and coming from the odd floors of a building will have the opportunity to select elevators that bypass all of the even floors. Space on the regular elevators is now available for most of the people going to and coming from the even floors of the building to bypass many of the odd floors. The invention allows all of the elevators in one area to carry more people faster with less congestion by changing the operation of one half of the elevators in the same area to stop only at the odd floors.
