Abstract

The way older people depend on walking as a means of transportation is discussed. Walking would better serve the needs of the elderly if walkways were improved and the danger and intrusion of motor vehicles across the walkways were minimized. The study points out that, although elderly people rely on walking, they also need vehicular transportation for shopping and a sense of independence.
