[HIGHLIGHTS] Greater Paris: metro, bus, walking… how can we adapt travel modes to the aging population?

In 2040, one in five residents of the metropolis will be over 65 years old. Study devoted to the effects of this aging on industrial mobility.

They mainly travel on foot, over shorter distances than their ‘juniors’ More motorists than the rest of the population, they are less consumers of public transport and almost exclusively on the so-called surface networks (bus and tramway) but not in the metro. And we will have to prepare the modes of transport that they use as a priority for the sharp demographic increase in the over 65s.
