Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Beyond Streets, we talk about how rural mobility, aging in place, and data standards are, amazingly, at the center of a more inclusive, tech-enabled transportation future. We sat down with Jana Lynott—longtime transportation policy expert, livability advocate, and self-proclaimed “transpo geek”—to unpack what it really takes to make our streets and systems work for older adults and underserved communities.From building smarter dial-a-ride networks to demystifying the link between digital infrastructure and physical access, we explore how to close gaps in mobility, health, and equity. Plus, we take a walk down memory lane with the AARP Livability Index, Complete Streets policies, and how Denmark might just be the blueprint America needs.Learn more about the studies referenced in this episode: www.aarp.org/futureoftransportationA Step Forward: How Complete Streets and Neighborhood Walkability Make Streets Safer for Older AdultsConnecting Community Transportation: Lessons Learned from Transactional Data Specification Demonstration Projects Help us grow: please rate, review, and subscribe!
