PAAC Transit Oriented Design Guidelines
Team: Studio for Spatial Practice
Client: Port Authority of Allegheny County
Location: Pittsburgh, PA
Date : 2015 - 2016
In collaboration with Port Authority of Allegheny County, SfSP created these transit-oriented development (TOD) guidelines to provide the entire community of TOD stakeholders- transit agencies, local governments, regional planners, community groups, developers, and others - with a common vocabulary and frame of reference for future TOD development.
Well-planned and well-designed TOD attracts residents to neighborhoods and riders to transit stations. When PAAC, along with a variety of partners, takes an active role in creating walkable, mixed-use and mixed-income communities, it creates a fertile environment in which transit service can grow and thrive.
