Transit-Oriented Development Framework

This document discusses transit-oriented development (TOD) and the methodology for developing TOD plans along metro corridors in Mumbai. It defines TOD as mixed-use, high-density development centered around public transit nodes that encourages transit ridership over personal vehicles. The objectives of TOD include increasing mobility options, creating affordable housing, promoting self-sufficiency, generating transit revenue, and fostering vibrant public spaces. The methodology involves 11 stages, including assessing the existing situation, developing corridor and station-level TOD frameworks, conducting market and financial feasibility studies, stakeholder consultations, and producing draft and final reports with maps and drawings.

Chapter 1.

Understanding of Scope of Services


Transit-oriented development (TOD)

A transit-oriented development (TOD) is a mixed use commercial and residential area


planned to maximize accessibility to public transport and encourage Mass Transport
ridership, and is usually proposed as a belt along the Metro line. It shall be integrated with
the proposed land use to ensure relatively high-density development with progressively
lower-density development spreading outward from the centers of metro stations. This
would be further detailed out in the Draft DP and DCR level.

Transit Oriented Development is essentially defined as any development, macro or micro,


that is centred around a transit node, and facilitates complete ease of access to the transit
facility to the maximum number of people, thereby inducing people to walk, cycle and use
public transport as a priority over personalized modes of transport.

1. Mobility Options for all:


 Discourage personalized mode usage and induce use of public transport and non-
motorized modes including walking through policy, design and enforcement
measures.
 Provide easy public transport access to the maximum number of people within walking
distance through intensification of land use thereby promoting and enhanced
connectivity.
 Provide variety of choices for safe, affordable and efficient modes of public transport
to all Sections of society.
2. Create Shelter for all:
 Increase the formal supply of housing stock and supporting commercial space which
would bring down prices and increase options for different income groups in the city.
 Integrate rich and poor symbiotically with shared amenities near public transit.
3. Self-Sufficiency:
 Create mixed-use high density development wherever missing, to make decentralized
infrastructure provision and management techniques more feasible, thus making it
more economical to recycle water/sewage locally to meet community needs.
4. Cheaper Public Transport:
 Value capture the increased land values near MRTS stations for long term cross-
subsidy/ non-fare box revenue for the provision, maintenance and possibly reduced
ticket prices of public transportation.
5. Active and vibrant Urban Environment
 Allowing more public open space and public realm.
Thus the objective of the zone is to allow sizable urban area within walking distance from
public transport. Hence the zone will carry higher density. This zone will be developed with
redesigned road spaces, NMT networks and infrastructure network to support intense
development. The area of TOD Zone shall be delineated in the Development Plan land use.

Implementation of the Metro Rail program gives rise to and the need for adopting a Transit
Oriented Development approach in the area abutting both sides of the respective metro
corridors. The primary advantage of a Transit Oriented Development is Environmental
Conservation and reduction of pollution contributed by multi mode transport providing last
mile connectivity to Mass Transit Nodes. The TOD development effectively nullifies the
need for transport for the last mile connectivity. In order to effectively implement a Transit
Oriented Development Programme it is necessary to re-orient the densities along the TOD
corridor. This calls for a reorganization of urban spaces in tune with the potential of the
Mass Rapid Transit Corridor through the process of Urban Renewal. The Urban Renewal
process shall encompass aggregation of residential densities within the TOD belt areas and
simultaneous reorganization of Urban Spaces and Transportation corridors in tune with the
requirements of the TOD Zone. The TOD Belt (500m on either side of metro corridor) shall
also be assigned greater FSI in order to enable maximum population to access the metro
by foot and through NMT. While the Public spaces and Transport corridors can be
reoriented in a short period of time to reflect the needs of a TOD corridor, however, the
reorganization of population densities will occur only over a longer period of time.

The TOD corridor can not only influence a predominantly residential neighbourhood but
also a predominant commercial land use as it effectively reduces the last mile connectivity
to the work place. There is also a need for balancing the proposed land uses for achieving
balanced development.

The proposed Policies and Designs will aim to capture the Vision and Objectives namely :

a. Planning for Seamless Inter-modal connections

b. Prioritizing Pedestrian Movement and Safety

c. Place Making to induce Strong sense of Place and Identity

d. Ensuring ideal Residential and Employment densities for maximizing TOD corridor
utilization.

e. Ensuring Economic vitality and competitiveness

f. Creation of Universal access environment


Chapter 2. Approach
Planning for the area along the TOD Corridor and its Station Area require a PROACTIVE
SUSTAINABLE APPROACH which addresses different scales at the state, regional and the
local level. This essentially translates into and understanding of place specific development
trends, potentials and issues with an objective of channelizing development that is
sustainable to natural environment. The following approach will be followed while
preparation of Draft DP for the TOD Corridor:
1. Participatory – All team members and stakeholders, at all levels, will be actively
involved at every stage.
2. Responsive – The consultants will be responsive to the objective of the assignment,
the needs of the client and stakeholders and the outputs solicited from them.
3. Ownership – The methodology followed will be such that a sense of ownership of
the Plan will be developed among all stakeholders.
4. Appropriate – the strategy/ targets / activities will be appropriate to the culture,
context and needs of the target audiences/ stakeholders and contextually in line with
internationally benchmarks.
5. Convergence – The Plan suggested will be in consonance with the needs of all
sectors so that none of the tasks are conducted in isolation and efforts are not
duplicate.
6. Time-bound – All the phases and activities will be conducted in a timely manner and
each phase will be marked with a specific output.
7. Inclusive and Innovative – The research methods, consultations as well as the
outputs will be inclusive of all targets stakeholders, especially vulnerable and
disadvantaged groups. The research methodology used and the outputs will be
innovative and will promote ‘out-of-the-box’ thinking while framing the plan.
8. Verifiable – The data collected during the assignment from secondary and primary
sources, as well as outputs and conclusions drawn will be made verifiable through
appropriate means and indicators.
9. Evidence-based – The strategy will be grounded and based on data which has been
systematically collected from proven sources, thereby rendering it firmly evidence-
based. Wherever possible, the data will be objective and quantitative.
