Not surprisingly, much of the focus for transit-oriented development goes to places with high frequency transit, whether that’s central areas with abundant service or station areas for rail or BRT. But what about car-oriented corridors in outlying suburbs, where transit is planned but not there yet? Find out about a t-o-d approach to “second-tier” locations, with examples from Canada and the US. The elements? A context-sensitive strategy built on looking at transportation, open space and development. Talking with local residents about the possibilities for stations areas and how they might integrate with nearby streets. Transit may not have arrived, but lessons learned for t-o-d planning are right on time!
