Document Summary

Land use and urban design april 4, 2017. A dynamic, uncontrolled process of urban expansion along transportation corridors, leading to low density development. There is an important link between types of transport we prioritize and land use. Better land use policies reduce our need for unsustainable modes of transportation. Builds on the idea of ped-sheds and transit-sheds. A mixed-use community within an average 600m walking distance of a transit stop and core commercial area. Community must be located on an existing or planned trunk transit line or on a feeder bus route within 10 minutes of transit travel time from a stop on the trunk line. Housing should be within a convenient walking distance from core commercial areas and transit stops. A mix of housing types (small lot single-family, townhouse, condo) should be used to achieve residential density targets. A mix of housing densities, ownership patterns, price, and building types is desired. Average minimum densities - 10-25 dwelling units.
