There are many persons who are invalid because of their past diseases and are under the pensionable age admitted. The invalidity is decidedly not a result o f the age as such. About 29 per cent of the population in Poland (i.e. over 11 millions people) have more or less serious difficulties in their own mobility. Moreover the average life time increases constantly as well as the share o f the elderly within the society. This is the reason why the anthropo-technology of the town-planning must take into consideration the requirements involved with the ergo-communication of this group which becomes more and more frequently the non-motorised participants in the traffic. The principles of planning the architecture of streets and the traffic organisation as showed by the Author as well as the proposed projection norms as applied in the practice should contribute to abate all the nuisances caused by a non-adaptation of technical elements of the environment to the needs of the third age people.plCZŁOWIEK STARSZY W URBANISTYCE TECHNICZNEJTHE ELDERLY IN TECHNICAL DIMENSION OF TOWN-PLANNINGArtykuł
