Transit Oriented Development (TOD) has enormous potential to help us rethink the transportation-land use connection and reinvest in communities to become more economically vibrant, sustainable and livable. New regional and statewide tools are being created to help plan for TOD by pooling our knowledge to reduce the burden on local governments. Statewide TOD
design guidelines, the Tri-Rail Station Evaluation Project, and a TOD Resource Guide for Tampa Bay are helping us do more with less. Learn about how these collaborative efforts promote an urban development paradigm shift that optimizes return on our investments.

Transit Oriented Development (TOD) results in the creation of compact, walkable and liveable communities with access to amenities built around high quality mass transit stations. However, the discourse around TODs in India is more of a densification and value capture approach, which is necessary, but yet an incomplete conversation for the Indian context. This webinar, presented by Todd Litman, Himadri Das and Lubaina Rangwala addresses the major challenges and learnings from the ‘implementation’ of a TOD.

The role of parking in transit-oriented development (TOD) neighbourhoods - There is an urgent need for city planners in India to reconsider existing parking norms and develop options for parking reduction within TOD areas. Dr. Barter and Mr. Mulukutla looked into the role of parking space in TOD neighbourhoods and how it can be better designed to benefit communities living around them.

“The ethics of transport planning” - Prof Stephen Potter talks at the HCDI se...Marco Ajovalasit
This presentation will explore the ethical issues behind what appears to be a technical design process - that of transport planning decisions. It will draw upon the transport/land use designs explored in Britain’s new towns (and Milton Keynes in particular) which help to highlight the ethical decisions involved.
This will illustrate the way that the design of towns and cities affects our travel behaviour and constrains our ability to choose to travel in a socially and environmentally responsible way. Indeed, we can get locked into unsustainable travel behaviours and feel powerless to behave otherwise. This leads to the now prevalent negative attitude towards transport policy initiatives and often outright opposition to sustainable transport developments.
Urban design professionals argue that high density settlements are the main way that sustainable transport choices can be provided, as such designs produce conditions which make for good public, and also suppress car use. However, although such an approach is possible in major conurbations and city centres, this is a difficult and contentious approach for suburban Britain. For most places ‘big city’ design solutions are not politically viable.
Perhaps we should be looking to more innovative approaches. These could blend a variety of new measures, such as the ‘smarter travel’ initiatives as well as new emerging technologies. However these require a different way of doing transport planning to the traditional ‘big infrastructure’ transport policy approaches. New physical design approaches often require the redesign of the processes and structures to implement and manage them, and this may be the key barrier to success.

The Pequonnock River Trail is 16 mile multi-use linear trail that runs from Bridgeport through Trumbull to Monroe in Connecticut and was planned by MetroCog thorough a coordinated effort with municipalities and the state.
MetroCog’s GIS team worked consultatively with a graphic designer to customize its GIS processes to create a vector file that is easy to stylize in Adobe Illustrator so that a print map could be produced. Through trial and error, the team found keys to GIS setup that are now utilized for any product for which a print map will be produced in the future. The team also setup a dynamic interactive storymap for use on the trail’s website.
This presentation provides and overview of what was discovered and how to customize any map setup in GIS to produce similar results.
2015 Rising Seas Summit - Mitigating Brownfield RiskMetroCog
With little to no statutory requirement to coordinate outside of local boundaries and a history of municipal-centric governance, the 169 autonomous municipalities within the state of Connecticut face many challenges in planning for environmental risk and for procuring grants and federal funding that favors regionalism.
Over the last five years, MetroCog has been collaborating with it's member municipalities to emphasize and strengthen a regional perspective. This enables better regional planning required for federal transportation and transit funding, as well as a growing interest in environmental conservation. As the members of our Council well know, the environment does not conform to municipal boundaries. This effort has led to an increased number of grant awards benefiting Connecticut.
Assessing the tree canopy in the region increases municipal decision makers’ understanding of their green infrastructure, particularly the amount of tree canopy that currently exists and the amount of land that could theoretically support tree canopy. In addition, this assessment is used to inform tree canopy goals, establish urban forestry master plans, and assist in targeting tree-planting efforts. By facilitating municipalities, designers, architects, engineers, and urban foresters to understand the tree canopy, this study enables the region to develop better ways of improving the function of the urban built environment and plan solutions that will address storm water runoff quality, reduce urban heat islands, and mitigate poor air quality.
