This report compiles topics and conclusions from the Sixth Annual Conference on Transportation for the Elderly and Handicapped. Due to the growing number of elderly in our society, often handicapped, and initiatives to increase the mobility of these groups, programs have become more focused on these issues. This report includes presentation from a national perspective, a brief history of the major Federal legislation affecting transportation programs for the elderly and handicapped, discussion of planning and implementation methods, examples of state and local programs both rural and urban, and discussion of two specific problems - driver training and equipment selection.
