… IT IS ALSO THE INTEGRATION OF THE VARIOUS COMPONENTS OF SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITY PLANNING INTO A HOLISTIC FRAMEWORK TOD IN THE NORTH AMERICAN CONTEXT Transportation + Land Use + Infrastructure = TOD

 Transit Oriented Development (TOD) refers to residential and Commercial Centers designed to maximize access by Transit and Non-motorized transportation, and with other features to Encourage Transit Ridership. A typical TOD has a rail or bus station at its center, surrounded by relatively high-density development, with progressively lower-density spreading outwards one-quarter to one-half mile, which represents pedestrian scale distances.

 Vibrant, compact, mixed use neighbourhoods containing a range of housing types, workplaces, shops, entertainment, schools, parks, and civic facilities essential to the daily lives of residents – all within a 5 to 10 minute walk from a transit station. TOD IN THE INDIAN CONTEXT

“Now, I am able to combine and comprehend the meaning of "Bus do kadam", "75 m" and "400-600m“ which collectively signifies that the Bus should be available within do kadam i.e. within a walking distance.”

21 NAYA RAIPUR TOD VISION

The vision for the Naya Raipur TOD Study is to develop a transit supportive framework that supports a series of seamless self-sufficient neighbourhoods in Naya Raipur each with a distinct character- linked with sustainable mobility options.

4.1. TOD Recommendations -Towards a Transit Supportive Naya Raipur

Five overarching key ideas summarized below have been developed through the course of this study as the pillars of the TOD Recommendations for the Transit Supportive Naya Raipur.

Detailed strategies for each of these key ideas is described in the subsequent seKEYctions of th iIDEASs report. Currently all planning in Naya Raipur in sector based. Each sector is segregated by 60m / 100m Right of Way (ROW). This has led to singular, auto-oriented land use planning typologies thereby signif cantly impacting ridership and the character of neighbourhoods. Station Areas transcend these sector boundaries and transportation infrastructure barriers and are def ned by Demarcation of TOD Inf uence Zone or a 800m / 10 minute walk distance. This is the maximum comfortable distance a pedestrian is willing to walk. This Station Area “Station Area” – Station Area Planning vs is further comprised of multiple zones with their own transportation and land use characteristics and a catchment area for other 1 Sector Based Planning feeder services and modes.

Currently a Right-of Way focused planning approach is being utilized for the 100m and 60m auto-oriented corridors. A complete streets approach focuses on the streetescapes between the building facades. As such, the vehicular travel lanes are just one component of the streetscapes amongst, the pedestrian sidewalks, outdoor amenity areas, active edges / building retail facades, informal zones, Non Motorized Transportation (NMT) corridors, IPT, services lanes, parking lanes, green buffers, infrastructure Complete Streets Approach corridors, transitways, medians, landscape, street furniture, all which are integral to create a sense of place or “streetscape- 2 placemaking”.

Some transit stations are located in bustling Central Business Districts at the heart of the city; others are in residential neighborhoods where transit provides a convenient means for commuters to travel to and from work and other destinations. Best Practices Approach - Some stations are located in areas that are experiencing rapid growth and change, while others are in more established, built-out Station Area Typologies as neighborhoods where any change will be incremental. Every station area, whether existing or proposed, faces unique challenges Best and will require specially tailored strategies to create high-performing transit-oriented development (TOD) projects. However, many 3 Building Blocks of TOD in Practices different types of station areas share similar characteristics. These similarities can help planners, citizens, and elected off cials Naya Raipur quickly and easily understand key planning considerations and what to expect in terms of the character, role and function of the places that will be created. Places are not def ned solely by their density or the intensity of activity, but also by the types of uses, how streets are arranged, how transit is accommodated, and their roles within the City and the transit network.

Station Area TOD Planning A generic step-by-step approach / framework towards Station Area Planning and Implementation is provided to assist NRDA in the process of developing future Station Areas. The Naya Raipur TOD Principles are also integrated within the planning framework. 4 Toolkit The framework approach will allow for adaption to different Station Areas existing and future likewise. Toolkit

An identif ed through the Existing Conditions Analysis, there has been a signif cant reduction in the salable area (residential, commercial and public/semi-public) due to auto-oriented transportation planning in Naya Raipur. to address this situation and given that land is a f nite resource, current Development Control regulations, specif cally, FAR’s, Density, Heights, Setbacks & Ground coverages will have to be modif ed. Transit Supportive Development Code 5 In addition, the revised Transit Supportive Development Code will be consistent with the Naya Raipur TOD Principles and should be used hand-in-hand with the Station Area TOD Planning Toolkit.

A step-by-step approach to develop the Station Area Plan is detailed in the following sections. Implementing a Station Area is a process which requires input and coordination between multiple Tools to follow are identi ed below. stakeholders, public and private agencies, developer community, business owners, residents and political will. An Implementation Framework for Naya Raipur is presented in Chapter 5 of this report. It sis important to note that this process of implementation does not happen overnight and is a long term process.
