Older Adults' Safe Mobility Research

This project will plan and hold three one-day Older Adults’ Mobility Research meetings of former members and friends of the Transportation Research Board (TRB) Committee for the Safe Mobility of Older Persons, as well as others interested in research on older adult safe mobility. Meeting participants will present findings from recently concluded projects, ongoing research activities, and planned projects related to older adults’ safe mobility. The meeting is to be held around the time of, and near the site of the TRB Annual Meeting to facilitate attendance of people who attend TRB. The project includes a Meeting Summary Report summarizing the presentations and discussion.
