this old convenience function has existed since the library's earliest days but needs to be reworked or removed, as it relies on urbanaccess which is no longer maintained (and causes failures with the latest geopandas).
The best option is to just remove it. If networks are used, then users should create them using the bespoke packages (pandana, osmnet, osmnx) directly, so that the decisions about network construction are transparent. It would be simple to document that process in a notebook instead of wrapping into an obscure and blindly opinionated function
