AB While the role of ageing population is considered crucial for Sustainable Development Goalat city level, limited attention has been paid to study the walking accessibility level of thispopulation group to retail activity. Moreover, one missing element is the analysis of theageing population willingness to reach retail activity on foot, which is here seen as a keypoint to generate friendly, liveable, and decarbonised urban environments. The city ofGranada (Spain) is taken as spatial laboratory for the research. For this city, the planning ofageing population mobility in the mid-term seems to be challenging. First, a questionnaireregarding the willingness of ageing population to walk to daily, weekly, and incidental retaillocations was conducted, including the identification of the main barriers to cover thosedistances on foot. Data were collected between January 2018 and January 2019. Second, adetailed description of the main existing problems to access to different types of retailactivities be explored and compared, distilling findings for urban diagnosis. This researchprovides a strong basis for policy-making formulation, which can be orientated towardsmaking cities more inclusive, liveable, and sustainable. Its findings can facilitate theidentification and mapping of locations where ageing population groups can be under riskof walking accessibility disadvantage.
