Transit Oriented Development
TOD is…
Compact sustainable development, located within an
easy walk of a major transit stop, generally with a
mix of residential, employment, and shopping
opportunities designed for pedestrians without
excluding the auto. TOD can be new construction or
redevelopment of one or more buildings whose design
and orientation facilitate transit use.
Goals for the TOD program and transit supportive
development activities include increasing ridership,
enabling easy and safe access to transit facilities,
providing services and amenities for RT’s customers,
enhancing the environment at transit stations and
facilities, and generating income for RT.

Land Use
The land
use section reviews and responds to development
applications submitted to RT by local
jurisdictions. It also reviews and provides
comments on offers of dedication by developers and
public agencies as well as reviews and comments on
environmental reports prepared by other public
agencies on projects with potential impacts on
transit.
