Title:
NEOTRADITIONAL DESIGN: MOBILITY FOR ALL AGES
Accession Number:
00812425
Abstract:
This paper examines the needs of school-age children and senior citizens from the perspective of traditional and neotraditional developments. A brief historical review of street development illustrates societal expectations regarding pedestrian mobility from the 1920s, 1950s and 1990s. Examples are given to illustrate the needs of pedestrians, particularly the elderly and school children. It concludes that traditional developments and neotraditional developments enable both the young and the old to experience transportation independence.
