The Getting about without a Car guidelines aim to help older people make the most of healthy transport. The information and ideas are particularly useful for:

  • People running programs for seniors.
  • People who provide services to seniors.

As local governments fit both of these descriptions, this is an excellent resource in the face of an aging population and the need for sustainable transport.

The guidelines include practical suggestions to help seniors get around, and bigger picture suggestions, like improving walking routes and public transport.
