Where is the MTA on TOD? (2006)

The PCAC examined New York State, the New York Metropolitan Transportation Council’s (NYMTC), and MTA policies and actions related to Transit Oriented Development. We found a number of promising initial steps moving toward TOD and several successful initiatives, but also a need to focus and coordinate efforts to link land use patterns and transportation. Based on our examination of conditions within the MTA service area and TOD in areas throughout the United States, the PCAC developed general recommendations for actions to be undertaken by the State of New York, NYMTC, and the MTA and its operating agencies.
