assessing the implementation of the functional principles of transit oriented development in the mirdamad station complex

today’s transportation is known as one of the most important elements of urban development structure. public transportation, according to its more extensive functional capacity, can play a vital role in wider scale. transit oriented development by focusing on the subways is one of the special approaches in this field. recently, tehran public transport fleet has significantly improved especially...

Seven American TODs: Good practices for urban design in Transit-Oriented Development projects

In the past few decades, Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) has emerged as a popular and in uential planning concept in the United States. Physical design is an important aspect of making TOD projects work as it is a crucial means of coordinating relatively intensive land uses and multiple transportation modes. is paper analyzes seven American TOD projects in terms of urban design and conclude...

Network design for personal rapid transit under transit-oriented development

This study addresses guideway network design for personal rapid transit (PRT) favoring transit-oriented development. The guideway network design problem seeks to minimize both the guideway construction cost and users’ travel time. In particular, a set of optional points, known as Steiner points, are introduced in the graph to reduce the guideway length. The model is formulated as a combined Ste...

Transit Oriented Development – making it happen

Transit oriented developments (TODs), be they greenfields developments, in-fill or redevelopments of existing sites, have been included as a key component within a number of recent metropolitan strategies within Australia, including the South East Queensland regional plan. Responding to increasingly extended journeys-to-work and other trip movements, TODs are one land use planning intervention ...
