TRANSIT-ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT TOD

Transit-Oriented Developments (TODs) are urban villageswhere residents live within a 5 –10 minute walk of quick,efcient public transit and can ‘live, work, play, shopand learn’ in a pedestrian-friendly environment — onewhere the automobile is an option, not a necessity.

IBI Group is a North American leader in Transit-OrientedDevelopment (TOD) master planning. The rm hasproduced major TOD land use planning exercises inCalifornia, Minnesota, Utah and Lower Mainland, BritishColumbia. Each of its TOD plans features public transitsystems — Heavy Rail, Automated Light Rail Transit (ALRT),Light Rail Transit (LRT) or Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) systemsas the spine upon which the TOD villages are positioned.

SUSTAINABILITY AND SMART-GROWTH PRACTICES

Sustainability is about meeting the needs of the presentwithout compromising the ability of future generations tomeet their subsequent needs by balancing the three pillarsof sustainability — social, environmental and eco nomicspheres of inue nce — into the decision-making progress.

‘Smart Growth’ practices translate the goals of sustainabilityinto the urban development process. ‘Smart Growth’enhances quality of life in communities, complements

“All cities that I know have very good trafc departments and perfect statistics about cars.They know how many go east and how many go west. They know how many parking spotsthere are and how they’re used… every time there is a planning process, the cars are veryvisible and somebody looks after them. I know of no city in the world that has a departmentof pedestrians and public life.”

The rhetoric of sustainability is undeniable. The challenge ofthe 21st Century is to help set in place the foundation uponwhich to build new, meaningful patterns of sustainable deve-lopment. IBI Group understands that responsible mixed-usedevelopment is one tangible solution to meet that challenge.

CENTERLINE LRTORANGE COUNTY CA

IBI Group has a long history of working for the OrangeCounty Transportation Authority (OCTA) to advancethe CenterLine Light Rail Transit project in OrangeCounty. This history began in 1994, when IBI Groupadvised on the Corridor Major Investment Study (MIS),which evaluated a full range of high capacity transportoptions for the identied urban transit priority corridor inOrange County. In 1998, IBI Group led the Urban RailDetailed Conceptual Engineering and EnvironmentalStudy to further advance the project by fully deninga 28-mile urban rail system for central Orange County.In 2001, the cities of Santa Ana, Irvine and Costa Mesa

passed resolutions in support of a Light Rail alignmentin those cities and requested that OCTA proceed into aPreliminary Engineering (PE) and Environmental Study.

IBI Group was a major subconsultant to ParsonsBrinckerhoff in conducting PE — assisting OCTAand the three cities in accelerating the CenterLinefrom planning to design. IBI Group had primaryresponsibility for station architecture, rail basearchitecture, Transit-Oriented Development and stationarea planning, trafc engineering and civil engineeringof streets and utilities for the 9 -mile starter segment.

The Metro Gold Line Authority retained an IBI Group Project Team to evaluate Transit-Oriented Development(TOD) potential and develop a Market Study for theproposed 16-mile extension of the Metro Gold Line.The extension currently runs from Union Station indowntown Los Angeles to Pasadena. The plannedextension runs east from Pasadena through 11 citiesto Montclair in the Sa n Gabriel Valley. The study

acknowledges that each city along the corridor isat different stages in regards to TOD readiness andacceptance and it coordinating with each city to assisttheir planning efforts. The Project Team is in the process

of developing innovative urban design concepts,transit-oriented plans and public education foreach proposed station. Factors such as marketconditions, land ownership, trafc circulation,entrenched commute patterns, local communityvalues and feasibility are specically studied.The scope of work includes TOD visioning, landuse planning, market and scal analysis, education

and implementation measures. The ProjectTeam provided corridor-wide existing conditionsanalysis focusing on current land use, generalplan designations and future pipeline projects.

“Bus Rapid Transit is a truly visionary approach in providing high quality transit service essentialto ensuring mobility and access for thriving communities… a world class subway on tires.”

–Federal Transit Administration. US Department of Transportation News Release

BRT TOD ‘Street & Blocks’ Map

The City of Calgary is promoting construction of fouradjacent, bona de TOD communities. As well as a roadwaycorridor previously constructed with a center median‘placeholder’, initially for BRT and, subsequently, as apossibility for LRT service. Upon completion the four TODcommunities, two of which are labeled as ‘EmploymentCenters’, are anticipated to house 100,000 residents.




MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENTTODs should offer a mix of diverseand complimentary high-activityuses rather than segregating uses.Mixed land uses can be organizedhorizontally or vertically, but the goalof active streetscapes require activeuses, such as retail to be locatedat ground level along primarypedestrian frontages.

2

STREETS & BLOCKSA grid-based street network is thefundamental building block of TODand allows for a diversity of differentstreet types and exible lot patterns.Blocks should be designed atthe human scale with lengths thataccommodate pedestrian travel.

3

PEDESTRIAN FRIENDLINESSTo make an interconnected network ofstreets and sidewalks work in a TOD,careful consideration of the interfaceis needed between the automobileand the pedestrian. In general, safestreets should encourage the driverto use caution and the driver and thepedestrian should always have clearsight of each other.

5

STREETS &INTERSECTIONSStreets in TODs are multi-functionalspaces, designed for the safe,convenient and efcient mobilityof all users, pedestrians, bicyclists,motorists and transit riders. Ahierarchy of street and intersectiontypes should allow for consistenttravel speeds and minimizeconicts between travel modes.

4

COMPACT DEVELOPMENTTo achieve the density and intensityof land uses needed to supporttransit and create sustainableand active urban neighborhoods,TODs should be compact anddesigned to intensify over time.

IBI Group is currently providing TODexpertise to the City of Calgary, which isexperiencing unprecedented growth dueto Alberta’s oil reserves. Part of IBI Group’swork entails production of ‘easy-to-use’TOD Design Guidelines, for use when

approving projects.


CALGARY LRT TOD DESIGN GUIDELINESCALGARY AB

TRANSIT STATIONS& TRANSIT PLAZASTransit is at the heart of TODs andtransit facilities should be wellintegrated into the surroundingneighborhood. The primary transitstation should be designed not onlyfor its primary function of travel butalso as a center for community life.

PARKINGParking requirements are lessthan conventional developments,TODs are designed to reducethe reliance on the automobile.Where parking is provided, itshould be incorporated into thedesign of buildings and preventedfrom dominating the streetscapeor becoming a buffer betweenpedestrians and the streetfront.

BUILDING ORIENTATION& FRONTAGESBuildings in TODs should addressthe street and the pedestrian,with active uses located alongthe sidewalk and not behindparking lots or blank walls.

6

OPEN SPACES & CIVIC USESTOD is as much about buildingcommunity as it is about supportingtransportation choice and transituse. A diversity of public places,including open spaces and civicuses, encourages social interactionand community participation.

8

11

SCALE & DENSITYThe densities needed in a TODto support transit use and anactive and diverse street life canbe accommodated through avariety of building types and scales.Mid-rise buildings in particularare well suited and often built tosimilar oor area ratios as towers.

ARCH ITEC TUR AL VAR IET YHigh-quality architectural design,carefully calibrated to reect andrespond to local character, is animportant placemaking elementof TOD and an antidote to therepetitive architecture of suburbs.TOD architecture should incorporatevisual variation, durable buildingmaterials and design detail.

MIXED-USE DESIGN

Perhaps the greatest single tool in our efforts to transformNorth American cities is that of mixed-use architecture.

Properly conceived, strategically placed mixed-usedevelopment can serve as catalysts of responsive change,allowing ‘cities at their best’ to prevail. IBI Group has anenviable list of mixed-used projects to their credit, combiningseemingly disparate uses such as ‘big box food stores andhigh-rise urban residential units’ into single developments.

The discipline of urban design ties together the architectural,site, transportation, social and economic planning aspects of aproject that relate specically to the design of the public realm.

IBI Group sees the discipline of urban design as the logicallink between city planning and architecture. Its placemakingvocabulary includes ‘streets and blocks, parks andplazas’ — the end result being more livable cities.
