Introduction The Master Transportation Plan (MTP) Goals and Policies document specifies three general policies that form the foundation of the MTP and, therefore, transportation in Arlington in the years ahead: integrating transportation with land use, supporting the design and operation of complete streets, and managing travel demand and transportation systems. Between 2015 and 2030, Arlington County population is projected to increase 25 percent and employment is projected to increase by 20 percent. Increasing and enhancing transit options is a prerequisite to accommodating continued long-term growth in Arlington’s population and business activity. As noted in the MTP, the integration of transit and land use, the organization of community development around high quality transit service, has been a foundational policy for the Metrorail corridors in the County for more than 30 years.

  • Land Value Impacts of Rail Transit Services in San Diego County
    Land Value Impacts of Rail Transit Services in San Diego County Robert Cervero and Michael Duncan Report prepared for National Association of Realtors Urban Land Institute June 2002 ABSTRACT Using hedonic price models, appreciable land-value premiums were found for different land uses in different rail-transit corridors that serve San Diego County, though incidences of land-value discounts were also found in the case of single- family housing. The most appreciable benefits were: 46% premiums for condominiums and 17% for single-family housing near Coaster commuter rail stations in the north county; 17% and 10% premiums, respectively, for multi- family housing near East Line and South Line stations; and for commercial properties, 91% premiums for parcels near downtown Coaster stations and 72% for parcels near Trolley stations in the Mission Valley. Positive capitalization impacts were found for multi-family parcels along all Trolley and Coaster corridors, generally in the range of 2% to 6%. Except for the Coaster downtown stations and the Mission Valley corridors, where premiums were very large, commercial properties accrued small or even negative capitalization benefits in other rail-served corridors. 1. INTRODUCTION If rail-transit investments confer benefits, real estate markets tell us. As long as there is a finite supply of parcels near rail stations, those wanting to live, work, or do business near transit will bid up land prices. The benefits of being well connected to the rest of the region – i.e., being accessible – get capitalized into the market value of land. As the cliché goes, rail-served properties have “location, location, location”: residents can more easily reach jobs and shops; more potential shoppers pass by retail outlets; and for employers, the laborshed of workers is enlarged.
