Abstract

This paper presented a survey and analysis of elderly people travel behaviour in Changchun, China, including the different gentle elderly people's trip frequency per day, trip purpose, and mode choice. Then compared the difference between developing countries and developed countries on elderly people travel behaviour, as well as analyzed the reason of these phenomena. With the goal to improve elderly people's mobility and comfortableness, this paper also discussed three kinds of urban passenger transport management policy measures, including the combination with land use, the improvement of sidewalk and other transport infrastructure, and the accessibility of public transport services. This research could provide more effective and suitable transport management policy measures to accommodate the elderly people era, and so contribute to sustainable transport development in city.
