In 2017-8, Michael Burrill forwarded his ideas on how cities can encourage Smart Growth and fund regional rail transit lines - without raising taxes - to public officials and interested citizens in several cities. Attached are his latest slides that use tax revenues from Transit-Oriented-Development (TOD) in Cincinnati as an example. Most other regions can anticipate similar results - with revenues from TOD at least five to 20 times the cost of new light rail lines.
Austin Transit Partnership (ATP) unveiled 5 new light rail alternatives for Project Connect on an open house March 21, 2023. These alternatives differ greatly from the original plan proposed to voters in 2020 when the project was overwhelmingly authorized through a property tax increase. The original plan promised an underground light rail system downtown and an airport connection, now both seem to be unlikely.
ATP must re-evaluate core principles of the project to stay on budget, deliver transit connectivity promised to the voters, and create the backbone for a 21st century transit system for the region.
Light rail is too expensive, too slow, lacks regional expansion potential, and will be instantly outdated when implemented.
eBRT is already authorized by the ballot language and the contract with the voters. No additional elections are required for this change. When paired with the future potential of AEV transit, this approach provides the best solution for Austin today and in the future.
eBRT provides a reliable system backstop if AEV technology does not advance as quickly as projected. eBRT by itself would provide better, faster, and cheaper to operate service than LRT.
An AEV system with a tunneled backbone will have major equity benefits across the City and regionally, replacing existing transit lines with superior service.
To maximize the project benefit, the system must provide regional connectivity in addition to connectivity with the City of Austin. The lower cost per mile to deploy eBRT and AEV enables a larger and more connected system to be built today and in the future.
This is an opportunity to cement Austin as the global center for transit innovation.
La mobilité dans un monde à 2°C : quel avenir pour les zones périurbaines ?Alicia Bassière
Les voitures occupent une place centrale dans les zones périurbaines en France (et ailleurs dans le monde) : sans elles, les habitants ne peuvent simplement pas y vivre. Ou c’est ce que l’on veut nous faire croire… Quelles sont les alternatives à la voiture individuelle ? Les déplacements en zone périurbaine peuvent-ils réduire leurs émissions de CO2 de manière significative ?
Ce sont autant de questions auxquelles le groupe de travail coordonné par Francisco Luciano pour The Shift Project va tenter de répondre. Ils présenteront les résultats d’une étude argumentée sur le potentiel des alternatives de mobilité bas-carbone en zone périurbaine : un véritable réseau cyclable, le co-voiturage, des transports publics rapides et bien d’autres encore.
Ces conclusions seront présentées puis discutées avec des acteurs majeurs de la mobilité qui discuteront également du futur des voitures individuelles, ainsi que d'autres véhicules, et de leurs possible évolution dans les zones périurbaines.

Beyond Mobility: Corridor Planning for the Bigger Picture AICP CM 1.5
Transit can do more than move people and generate revenue. More and more, cities are investing in transit to transform their communities and deliver on more expansive city-building objectives. Traditional transit goals are expanding to address the promise of livable communities, environmental stewardship, economic development and improved public health. Hear how two cities -- Seattle and Portland -- are shaping development scale and character with transit investment. Both cities are using parcel-based, pro forma-based tools to quantify the potential impact of transit projects. Join us for an interactive discussion about the capabilities and limitations of these tools. Hear their stories and learn how to evaluate your own projects against a broader set of goals using technical and market-based analysis.
