Providing Senior Citizens Mobility at Minimum Public Cost
| 项目名称： | Providing Senior Citizens Mobility at Minimum Public Cost |
| 摘要： | Demographics trends in the US indicate significant increases in the number of people aged 65 years and over (seniors) and underscore the need to expand senior services. These services will include assisted transportation for older citizens who would no longer drive. Increases in senior demand for demand-responsive services, which tend to be very expensive to provide, will aggravate the financial situation of transit agencies, which already must rely on subsidies to maintain operations. There is the need therefore to devise and adopt innovative mobility services as well as methods of payment to meet the inevitable increase in the needs of seniors. The objective of this study is to examine ways of accomplishing that. |
