Transit Oriented Development along Metro Rail
21-Jul-2017
The government is encouraging residential & commercial development along the metro corridor.
TOD refers to uses such as shops, restaurants, residential buildings, entertainment facilities within walking distance of metro stations.
The idea is to create walkable communities and also to improve financial feasibility of the project.
TOD would give impetus to development of satellite cities at various corners of the city thereby increasing city’s population.
Metro rail is expected to bring down the number of 2 & 4 wheelers in the city.
