When Shortest Isn't Safest: A Design Science Approach to Senior-Friendly Pedestrian Routing

arXiv:2607. 24795v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Older adults' independent mobility enables out-of-home participation, well-being and health, yet pedestrian navigation systems still optimize primarily for distance or time, often overlooking barriers, safety thresholds, and supportive infrastructure that shape late-life walking decisions.
