The purpose of this study is to examine active travel trends within Japanese suburban new town residents focusing on differences between age groups. Data relating to frequency of visits to seven specified destinations, transportation mode choice and satisfaction with transportation were obtained from residents of three new towns in Aichi Prefecture. Results show that age is not associated with fewer visits to primary services or less engagement in active travel, with often greater engagement among older cohorts aged ≥60. However, dissatisfaction is often greater for infrastructure related to active travel than other motorised modes of transport.
