Abstract
A computing system can receive a request for a service from a computing device of a given user of the network service, and select an entrance from multiple entrances for a geographic area associated with the request for the service. The system may then determine a sequence of instructions for a driver of a vehicle to fulfill the request, where the sequence of instructions includes at least (i) an instruction to enter the geographic area at the selected entrance, and (ii) a vehicle stopping location. The system then transmits the sequence of instructions to a computing device of the driver.
