A Smart(er) TOD

Transit Oriented Development in Indian Smart Cities

National Institute of Urban Affairs

A method of concentrating high densities of people, households and jobs in close proximity to public transit in order to reduce the need to travel using

private vehicles

Why TOD?

Mobility Density Diversity Design Housing

CONSTRUCTS OF TOD

TOD & Indian Smart Cities

Smart Cities Mission provides:

Support of the SPV

Convergence of Financial resources

Technical support through collaborative competition, handholding and peer-to-peer learning

Stakeholder support

A strategic planning framework that aligns with implementation of TOD

• 41 out of 60 cities have already propose land-use transportation integration

About the Research

21 cities studied based on:• Global Overview of Best Practices

• MoUD’s TOD Guidance Document Guidance

Key themes observed in Smart City Plans• Re-directing growth for:

– Densification within the core city area

– reducing sprawl and improving quality of life

– preserving cultural or natural heritage

• Improving access to public transit for low income households

• Ensuring sustainable infrastructure service delivery

• Managing the city's built and open spaces for efficient land utilisation

Further interventions for :

• Diversity in modes for last mile connectivity by enhancement of infrastructure for non-motorisedtransportation (bicycles and pedestrian)

• Creating an interconnected street network on the principle of complete streets

• Smaller block sizes to reduce travel distances

• Universal design

• Street oriented buildings with active frontages

• Strong parking regulations that minimise parking in core city.

• Diversity in housing stock

• Proximity of affordable housing to public transit

Value Capture Finance

• Potential for VCF resulting from large scale investment in infrastructure and public transit enhancement in India

• Current status of VCF in India (based on

study of 24 states):– Land tax, which is the most efficient VCF tool

is supported legally only in 10 states.

– Vacant land tax is another efficient tool, which is legally supported only in 10 states.

– One time charges are more common in India

– Gaps in monitoring and implementation lead implementation of one time charges, limiting the capture of value from the infrastructure enhancement

• Limited models of engagement with the private sector due to the lack of a shared vision among the different stakeholders

Form Based Code

• Method of creating a shared vision for development and its impact on the urban form.

• Builds an understanding of the expected transformation of the physical form

• An effective means to engaging the citizens in the development process

Compilation of indicators and their standard values as per MoUD’s TOD Guidance Document

• Total 72 indicators distributed over 5 Constructs

• Lack of availability of standardized data for all 72 Indicators

• In case of some of the cities studied, data was available for only upto 40% of the indicators

• Opportunity to leverage the Smart Cities Mission to extend the application of ICT beyond governance, to collect and manage data.

TOD & Indian Smart Cities

List of Indicators organised by Constructs was shared at the International Workshop in JanuaryContribution to the National

VCF Policy Draft

Suggestions to the National TOD Policy

• High quality public transit network– Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) (Ahmedabad)

– Metro (Delhi)

– Commuter Rail (Mumbai)

• Intensification of land utilisation for higher Household per sq.km, People per sq.km and Jobs per sq.km

• Affordable housing in close proximity to public transit to enable lower income families to access jobs

• Pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure to ensure access to public transit (last mile connectivity)

• Mix of activities and uses to reduce distances travelled for work or for recreation

• Urban design that enhances quality of the built and open spaces for all user groups
