“…With the ambition to become the second largest economic area in the Netherlands after Randstad by 2020, the city region aims to promote regional cooperation (ArnhemNijmegen City Region, 2018). It is esteemed to be one of the beacons of TOD in the Netherlands (Pojani & Stead, 2014). It is also considered representative of other European regions of similar scale that are pursuing TOD.…”

Recent research on the assessment of transit-oriented development (TOD) has focused on individual transit nodes. However, we argue that having such a TOD level value is not sufficient to understand the role each transit node plays within a TOD network. In other words, a transit node may have a low performance when evaluating its individual TOD level, but it may serve an important role within the TOD network, for example, as a feeder node. In this paper, a TOD typology was developed based on built-form indicators to identify the roles different types of nodes play within the transit network and to discuss complementarity effects between TOD nodes within the TOD network. The study area is the Arnhem-Nijmegen city region in the Netherlands, which has a TOD network of 22 train stations. Results identified three types of roles: suburban residential, characterized by low population and job densities; urban residential, marked by low destination accessibility and low diversity of land-uses; and urban mixed core, which featured higher densities of jobs, population, and diversity of land uses. Based on the TOD typology, a correspondence analysis was conducted to measure the potential complementarity effect of the TOD network system, i.e., the extent to which nodes in different typologies can complement each other to strengthen the characteristics of the TOD as a network. The results illustrated that differentiation among the TOD nodes in terms of residential housing prices and building uses contributed to a more diversified offer in terms of activities and functions of the TOD region and indicates complementarity between stations. Thus, TOD should be assessed and planned in a network system perspective, with the understanding that the nodes are pieces that contribute to the performance of the network.

“…Although a highly knowledgeable "TOD lobby" has formed, it has failed to reach a wider audience and frame the TOD concept for the planning community. Local planners are searching for (a) ideas related to the urban design of areas in the immediate proximity of train stations, and (b) financial tools that would make TOD viable without substantial investment from the public sector (Pojani and Stead, 2014a).…”

“…However, studies to date maintain that TOD is a complex concept, which cannot be easily transferred in its entirety from place to place (Pojani and Stead 2014a). A meta-analysis of 11 international TOD case studies identified 16 critical success factors in TOD implementation, the most significant being: political stability and continuity, relationships between actors in a region, interdisciplinary teams used to implement TOD, and public participation.…”

Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) involves intense, mixed development around transit nodes. This article investigates the extent to which TOD policies have become reality in Brisbane, a city of two million in eastern Australia, which has embraced TOD at a policy level. It also aims to present a straightforward method which cities in Australia and internationally can employ to measure the outcomes of their TOD policies. Through GIS analysis, the authors measure the level of concentration of population, dwellings, and jobs in rail-based TOD nodes-as opposed to areas that are unserved by the train network. The results do not support the notion that Brisbane is a transit-oriented city. Nonetheless, there is a moderate trend toward the concentration of people and dwellings in TOD areas. The planning sector could accelerate this trend through policy measures. 以公共交通为导向的发展(TOD)指围绕公交枢纽进行密集型、混合型开发。本文考察布里斯班实施TOD 的情况。这座澳大利亚东部城市人口200 万，已经制定了TOD 政策。本文还试图推荐一种可在澳大利亚和其他国家城市中用来衡量TOD 效果的简便方法。通过GIS 分析，作者测量了轨道交通枢纽的人口、居住和工作密集度，并与不通火车的地区进行了对比。结果显示布里斯班算不上以公共交通为导向的城市。不过，TOD 地区人口和居住密度略有增加。规划部门可通过政策措施加速这一趋势。 1. Introduction Starting in the second half of the twentieth century, many western cities, especially those within the Anglosphere, have spread horizontally in a low-density fashion. Urban sprawl has resulted in loss of green space, lack of choice in terms of housing products, segregation of land uses, long distances between destinations, over-reliance on automobiles, traffic congestion and related externalities, and costly requirements to expand infrastructure (Downs 2007). These problems are acute in Australian cities, especially lower density ones. In response, in the last few decades a number of planning concepts-including "growth boundaries, " "planned unit development, " "form-based zoning, " "green urbanism, " etc.-have been introduced or revived in order to manage urban expansion in a more efficient and sustainable manner (see Goetz 2013). Recently, there has been keen interest in creating a more coordinated approach to growth management in order to achieve a more sustainable urban form (Curtis 2012a). One emerging concept is Transit Oriented Development (TOD), which involves intense, comprehensive development around transit nodes.
