Why Transportation? Our Community –Transportation Planning Along the Lifespan Workplace of the Future Social Engagement Marketplace But actually... Transportation is such a basic aspect of life it falls within all of these areas!

Personal Transportation And for those who no longer drive, an alternative mode of transportation that is accessible. Driving

Driving is not just about getting around!

Older adults want to drive. Preference

Independence Driving, and having a license, is a badge of personal independence. Advertising and media messages of automakers reflect our cultural values. In life, there are passengers and there are drivers... be a driver. People friendly. The legend lives. For life. An American revolution. Welcome to the state of independence.

Personal Burden Driving cessation leads to depression and social isolation.

Access to Healthcare Lack of transportation limits healthcare access and reduces utilization.

The Session Today So adequate transportation for older adults is all about dignity, health, and independence. Speakers today will present a myriad of issues and action items that deserve our attention.
