Road Sign System Design for Aging Population

Abstract:

With the growth with the citys population of elderly people, the symptoms of aging are becoming more and more significant. Older people are faced with complex circumstances when they are outdoors, a correct and efficient system of road signs should help them reach their destinations safely. Therefore, a well designed system for the elderly is vital. The following research is concentrated on the design of the road sign system focusing upon the aspects of placement positions, height of the text and symbols, and the amount of information included on the sign. This will assist in the design of the most useful and efficient sign board system for the elderly. This will be determined through the experimental method.
