Transit-Oriented Development

This guide presents a series of recommendations to help communities develop station-area plans to support high-speed and intercity rail service. These recommendations are grouped under four broad categories:

  • Optimize station location.
  • Maximize station connections with other transportation modes.
  • Shape it through urban design.
  • Focus infill development around the station.
