Description:

The Rail-Oriented Development: Strategies and Tools to Support Passenger Rail Handbook (the Handbook) is the final work product associated with the Land Use and Transportation System Components to Support Passenger Rail Study (the Study), sponsored by the Colorado Department of Transportation in 2001. This nine-month Study was initiated in an effort to research and define the land uses, land development patterns and transportation system characteristics that would support a statewide passenger rail system in Colorado. The findings of the Study are presented in this Handbook, which has been designed to provide practical answers to questions regarding how to plan for passenger rail. The Handbook is based on extensive research into the land use/rail transit relationship, and on an evaluation of existing North American rail transit systems and their urban environments. The Handbook is not meant to advocate rail transit, per se, but rather to describe the recommended land uses and development patterns that would support rail transit in Colorado, as well as those that are likely to emerge as a result of passenger rail.
