What problem does it solve?

Automates TOD design planning around transit stations using ITDP TOD Standard v3.0.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • ITDP TOD Standard v3.0-compliant design guidance for station-area planning
  • Density-distance gradient modeling with Zone A (0-200m), Zone B (200-400m), Zone C (400-600m), Zone D (600-800m)
  • Parking policy and Transportation Demand Management (TDM) integration with first-last mile design
  • Station-area planning, public realm, and civic space design strategies
  • Use Case: Evaluate a metro station catchment and generate a complete TOD specification for phasing and implementation

Quick Start

Provide a TOD design brief for a new transit station and request a complete specification package

FAQPage Schema
How do I plan a transit-oriented development around a new metro station?

Transit-oriented development planning is automated by generating a complete TOD specification using the ITDP TOD Standard v3.0. You provide a design brief for the station, and the workflow outputs density gradients, parking strategies, and station-area design components.

What is a density-distance gradient in TOD station-area planning?

A density-distance gradient models urban form across four TOD zones based on walking distance from the transit station. It allocates density and land-use intensity across Zone A (0-200m), Zone B (200-400m), Zone C (400-600m), and Zone D (600-800m).

How do I integrate parking management and TDM into first-last mile design?

Parking policy and Transportation Demand Management are integrated into first-last mile design through the TOD specification workflow. The output aligns parking strategies and TDM measures with the station-area public realm and civic space design.

Can I use the ITDP TOD Standard for corridor and neighborhood scale planning?

The ITDP TOD Standard v3.0 workflow applies to core, neighborhood, and corridor contexts. It evaluates transit catchments and generates structured design specifications tailored to each specific spatial scale.

What do I need to provide to generate a complete TOD specification package?

You need to provide a TOD design brief for a new transit station. Requesting a complete specification package based on this brief triggers the automated workflow to output phasing and implementation guidance.

Does walkability factor into the TOD design workflow output?

Walkability is a core component of the TOD design workflow. The output integrates pedestrian-first design strategies across the station-area public realm, civic spaces, and first-last mile connections.
