  • Camden County Smart Growth Transit Analysis
    Camden County Smart Growth Transit Analysis prepared for: The Senator Walter Rand Institute, The City of Camden, Camden County Board of Freeholders, and The Greater Camden Partnership prepared by: Voorhees Transportation Policy Institute Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey December 2002 Alan M. Voorhees Transportation Center Transportation Opportunities and Constraints in the Camden Hub This report explores the potential for smart growth opportunities in the Camden Hub (the city of Camden and thirteen surrounding municipalities). Its purpose is to propose a transit-based redevelopment strategy that will promote sustainable development at both the local and regional levels within the Camden Hub. The Camden Hub possesses a number of public transit assets — PATCO Speedline (PATCO), the NJ Transit Atlantic City line, and the NJ Transit bus system — as well as the Southern New Jersey Light Rail Transit System (SNJLRTS) which will soon be opened for service, which could be capitalized on to better serve the development needs of the city of Camden and the surrounding region. These transit assets could provide an essential framework for the targeting of economic development and the revitalization of the city of Camden as a job, residential and recreation center. At the outset, the paper will briefly describe the experience of Jersey City, another city across the river from a major central business district, which has experienced smart growth development focused around its public transit assets. While there are many differences between the situations of Jersey City and Camden, valuable lessons can be learned from Jersey City that could be applicable to Camden’s circumstances.
