Tech & Transit Oriented Development - The New TOD
The document discusses the design principles for promoting active and new mobility in urban environments, emphasizing a bike and pedestrian-first agenda to create connected, healthy communities. It highlights the importance of integrating technology, multi-modal transportation options, and flexible transit systems to meet changing mobility needs. Key topics include autonomous vehicles, urban transit hubs, and the need for stakeholder collaboration in developing sustainable transportation strategies.

Editor's Notes
- #7 Most scenarios of pedestrian safety allude to one car and one pedestrian. However 50 cars and 60 pedestrians is a recipe for gridlock. If one car stops then all others behind need to stop as well. Then there is the problem of pedestrians “gaming” cars. Finally there is the “trolley” problem, which in this case is a baby carriage. Carmakers are having to provide tradeoff algorithms, which proves that the safety is not foolproof. In the end, we will either need to (1) highly regulate pedestrians, making walking less attractive, or (2) limit conflicts.
- #8 Las Vegas launched this driverless shuttle on public streets in December.
- #9 Let’s talk Transit Oriented Development. The current model is a “bulls-eye” where development is concentration around stations, with the highest density at locations closes to station entrances.
- #10 Technology is already changing the shape of TOD-sheds. In this example, access to station is not spreading out along enhanced bike and walk routes. RCLCO has also found that demand for TOD is spreading to areas where access is a $5 or less Uber/Lyft ride. In addition real time information and seamless payment systems make transit easier, predictable and thus more attractive
- #11 Autonomous will help us move to even more access. First – high capacity transit will always be a requirement to move a lot of people. There is simply not enough road capacity to handle individual cars. Second, to limit conflicts among active and autonomous modes, we can build spines for bike, peds and autonomous shuttles Autonomous cars and deliveries can access the TOD at the periphery. Automated delivery internally can then deliver goods. Autonomous shuttles can provide access to transit for neighborhoods now isolated by distance or geography.
