Transit Oriented Development (TOD) and Integrated Hubs

Our TOD has established a reputation for innovation in its approach to sustainable transport. We have the experience and strength to deliver public transport integrated development projects, including Airport, Rail, Metro, BRT, Bus Lane and Active Transport. We have a very experienced team of TOD planners with expert capability to ensure high standards of quality in the planning and design of PT network, stations and integrated developments.

TOD Benefits

Revenue Increase

Increases viability of Public Transport Investment – value capture used to fund development.

Sustainability

  • Reduce dependence on car and increases use of sustainable transport modes, thereby reducing congestion and increasing Public Transit ridership.
  • Creating sustainable neighbourhoods and communities – increasing street activity and public safety – Placemaking.
  • Energy saving – shared utilities, balanced use or resources

Agglomeration Benefits

  • Provides a balanced approach to growth – TOD directs higher density development to appropriate areas near transit stations.
  • Neighborhood Centers and Vibrant Ground Floors – Good public space promotes social interaction between residents.
  • Public spaces should be connected to the urban transport network and be places of activity

Increases Land Values

  • increases in land values high compared to locations away from transit stops.

Reducing Urban Sprawl

  • Reducing the need for further greenfield development.

High Quality Public Transit

  • Public transit is strongly linked to urban development.
  • The public transport system connects to a high number of riders with the city in a comfortable, efficient, and affordable way.

Safety and Security

  • Safety can be effectively promoted through an integrated and optimised interchange design, such as minimizing the crossings and conflicts between pedestrian and vehicles.
  • Personal security is improved through developing a more vibrant place around stations.
