Race modified the relationship between total highway length and visuospatial function (β=-.024, p=.008). Greater total highway length related to better visuospatial function only among non-Hispanic Black participants (β=.027, p=.038) . Highways and TRI sites may represent modifiable polluting infrastructure that influences older adults’ cognition through distinct pathways. The unexpected finding between highways and visuospatial function among Black older adults may reflect unmeasured effects of highway accessibility (e.g., access to resources, social networks) .
