Abstract:This study provides a state-of-the-practice review of transit-oriented development (TOD) with an emphasis on recent experience in California. The main objective of this study is to define strategies that the State of California could undertake to encourage the broader implementation of TOD near major transit stations: bus, rail, and ferry. The report offers a definition of TOD, and an overview of the components of successful TODs. It summarizes a literature review of the benefits of TOD, as well as its potential effects on travel and transit use. In the second section, the report provides an overview of the current status of implementation of TOD both in the United States and more specifically within California, including region-by-region reviews. The report concludes with recommendations for fourteen strategies that the State of California could undertake to facilitate the broader implementation of TOD at local and regional levels. This website front page allows the user to view the study in PDF format as individual sections from a hyperlinked table of contents or a single file (5.5Mb).
