We live in an ever-aging world. The percentage of older citizens increases in modern societies as older citizens represent the 19.20 population. In Greece, an increase of almost 7 observed in the last twenty years. As old age never comes alone, age-related impairments should be considered in the effort to provide safe transport conditions for them. It is of importance that transportation services have to meet the special requirements and needs of older citizens. European Union, through the ACTIVAGE project, aims at using the Internet of Things (IoT) solutions in favor of older citizens. In the framework of this project, the ACTIVAGE Safe Mobility Platform (ASMP) has been designed. Therefore, older citizens and their relatives have access to information regarding their travels. In the context of this study, an extensive description of the ASMP and the services offered through it is provided.
