| dc.description.abstract | The need to promote a more sustainable urban development model has led many cities, metropolitan areas and regions to seek more rational forms of land use and city form, such as those based on Transit Oriented Development (or TOD). The root principle of this strategy (real estate development associated to public transportation deployment) has been largely adopted before the car era. Currently, it is being increasingly adopted again worldwide, as a response to the need to promote more sustainable land use practices and thus preventing climate change. From Curitiba and Amsterdam to The Bay Area of San Francisco - that has recently adopted such approach at a regional level - the number of well succeeded initiatives, with different levels of implementation and success, has been increasing. The goal of a TOD strategy is to create or improve the use of, public transportation networks, densifying areas with good transit access and at the same time interconnecting centralities in the urban fabric. By improving public transportation quality and accessibility in the city, conditions are given to a more dense and decentralized development. This development, concentrated along these “axis”, creates incentives to transportation mode change, thus contributing to the reduction of traffic congestion, toxic pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. | |
