Abstract
The United States' demographic profile is changing. Tomorrow's America will be older, more ethnically and culturally diverse, experience more immigration both internally and internationally, and have a new generation of better educated women. How will these potentially disruptive demographics affect the future of the transportation system? This article outlines the objectives of a U.S. Department of Transportation, Research and Innovative Technology Administration's University Transportation Centers Program's Spotlight Conference on the Impact of Changing Demographics on the Transportation System, held at the National Academies, Washington, DC, October 2008. Seven of the several papers presented are published here as a special issue to identify key research questions and implications for both policy and practice.
