  • Abstract:
    Over the next 30 years, the significant increase in the adult population aged 65 or more will place new and growing demands on transport systems in OECD Member countries. On the whole, older people who drive will prefer to continue doing so for as long as possible. They will also expect to have access to alternative transport modes that meet their individual needs, especially as they approach 80 years of age. Future transport systems and services will play an essential role in supporting independent, healthy ageing. The time horizon, 2030, marks the year when the last of the baby boomers will reach 65 years of age. The analyses, projections and policy recommendations are based on the expected status of older road users in OECD Member countries in 30 years’ time. The study whose highlights are described in this report had as its aim to identify current and emerging mobility and safety issues arising from the ageing of the baby boom generation and to develop policy and research recommendations to meet older people's transport needs while maintaining acceptable safety standards. 13 p. The complete 138 page report of the same title is available in both English and French for purchase from the publisher in both pdf and hard copy versions from the publisher.
