Methods and systems for planning evacuation paths are provided to identify an optimum path for evacuation of every evacuee from a region of interest. Methods of the instant disclosure ensure that for each suggested evacuation path, the capacity of any edge on the path is not exceeded and the evacuation time is minimum. A path once identified is maintained. A randomized behavior model is employed to re-distribute evacuees in emergency situations.
