Transport and mobility options for elderly and individuals who need assistance are very limited. The COVID-19 pandemic has worsened the situation by many folds. This research mainly focuses the travel behaviour issues of such individual elderly, and people having mobility challenges; to know their coping strategies, to contribute to the knowledge base and raise the concerned issues in governance and policy spheres. This study will provide an excellent opportunity to compare and contrast travel behaviour, practice and strategies for elderly and physically challenged people of different culture, geography and policy diversity during COVID-19.
