The Queensland Government recently released a statutory planning document South East Queensland Regional Plan 2005-2026 to manage the rapid growth of its south east region. One of the strategies identified in the document is to establish a number of transit-oriented developments (TODs) to create compact, walkable communities around high capacity public transport nodes. The objective of the pape...

The potential of smart-card data for measuring the variability of urban public transit network use is the focus of this paper. Data collected during 277 consecutive days of travel on a Canadian transit network are processed for this purpose. The organization of data using an object-oriented approach is discussed. Then, measures of spatial and temporal variability of transit use for various type...

In the wake of decreasing urban development space in China, regeneration has gradually changed from incremental renewal to stock renewal. Looking back on past process renewal, we can find that “Transit-oriented Development” (TOD) plays an essential role modern Therefore, this study, explain concept and principles TOD discuss logic addition, summarize basic features strategy based through analys...

Due to increases in congestion, transportation costs, and associated environmental impacts, a variety of new enhanced transit strategies are being investigated worldwide. The transit-oriented development (TOD) concept is a key area where several enhanced transit strategies can be implemented. TODs integrate transit, residential, retail and/or commercial entities into a compact, pedestrian-frien...

While Transit Oriented Development (TOD) has almost exclusively concerned rail based modes there has been a recent interest in bus related TOD with an emphasis on new bus rapid transit (BRT) developments in North/ South America and Australia. This paper takes a critical look at the strengths and weakness of bus based transit systems in relation to TOD through a review of the literature and an a...

With the emergence of innovations associated with public transport (PT) services, such as Mobility-as-a-Service, demand responsive transit, and autonomous vehicles, door-to-door PT journey is achievable via multiple transfers between within different modes. As such, seamless modes transportation become an increasingly important factor for attractiveness services. At same time, recent developmen...

Transit Oriented Development (TOD), as an integrated transportation and land use policy practice, was given attention in recent decades to (re)formulate urban areas worldwide. Amongst different TOD planning dimensions at play in, the design policies tend basically form backbone of TODs, since a multimodal sustainable movement — public (PT) for long trips well non-motorized (NMT) short ones is o...

Discussions of urban form invariably lead to discussions of urban transportation. This is understandable, as transportation has proven to be among the most influential factors affecting the density and shape of metropolitan areas. This topic is of particular interest to those involved in the design of new communities or in the redevelopment of older ones. These individuals may not have a backgr...

Synergies between shopping and public transit have long been noted, with main streets emerging along tram lines malls attached to train stations. The shopping-transit synergy is also at the core of transit-oriented development (TOD), a widespread planning approach urban sustainability. However, there lack morphological research investigating how clusters around stations fine-geographic scale. T...
