Abstract
We analyzed the relationship between reduced fare program, step counts per day and visited places in older adults. We targeted transport pass holders and non- holders living in Toyama city, Japan. The transport pass holders can receive fare discounts when they go to downtown by public transportation. We collected GPS log data and step counts for one month. Consequently, we showed the ratio of pass holders whose step counts per day were over 8,000 was more than non-pass holders (13.6% vs. 10.1%). Moreover, we indicated pass holders visited surrounding areas of public transportation more frequently than roadside areas by handling GPS log data and identifying visited places for one month.
