Transit-Oriented Development
Community Investments: Volume 22, Issue 2, 2010
This issue of Community Investments explores the growing practice of
transit-oriented development (TOD) and its implications for community
development. The articles provide an introduction to basic TOD concepts and
also explore issues such as how transit affects economic opportunities for
LMI workers and the interrelationship between transit and schools. We also
examine equity issues in TOD and transit funding, and highlight models for
protecting the interests of LMI communities affected by TOD. |
