TOD (Transit-Oriented Development)
Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) refers to the planning and design of communities that prioritize accessibility to public transportation, like buses and trains. This approach promotes higher density living spaces, shops, and services within walking distance of transit stations. The goal is to reduce reliance on cars, encourage sustainable transportation, and foster vibrant neighborhoods. By integrating housing, work, and leisure activities near transit, TOD aims to create convenient, efficient, and eco-friendly urban environments, ultimately improving quality of life and reducing traffic congestion.
