Abstract

The mobility of senior citizens gains on importance on account of demographic, economic and social developments. With the rising life span there grows the wish for active participation of the group 65plus in social life. In this regard also the wish for lasting and independent mobility increases. Securing the mobility of this group owns beside an individual also a social and economic dimension. Many elderly people have mobility or activity restrictions. The architectural and social environment is up to now not concerning these developments barrier-free enough (A). For the covering abstract of the conference see ITRD E212343.
