Planning for just and sustainable urban regions, Paris, 8-12th July 2024Transit-oriented developments (TODs) are widely used to promote sustainable mobility by encouraging residents to use public transportation and to reduce car dependence (Calthorpe, 1993). Doha, the capital of Qatar, has faced numerous challenges including excessive reliance on private vehicles and lack of integrated last-mile connections. This study points to better integrating TOD models with sustainability indicators, to achieve more sustainable urban development. Quantitative and qualitative methodologies were used, including literature review concentrating on TOD and sustainable urban mobility, SWOT assessment, site analysis, data collection from the Qatar Ministry of Municipality and Environment (MME), consultant companies, and Qatar Railways Company. The study demonstrates the adaptation of TOD approach to non-western country through promoting socio-cultural spaces, heat mitigation strategy, integrated transport system, and more community engagements.
