Sustainable and Affordable Housing Near Rail Transit: Refining and Expanding a Scenario Planning Toll
| 项目名称： | Sustainable and Affordable Housing Near Rail Transit: Refining and Expanding a Scenario Planning Toll |
| 摘要： | Affordable housing and climate change have become urgent issues in cities across the United States. Evidence from previous research in Los Angeles showed that promoting transit-oriented development (TOD) to achieve greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction could be at odds with providing access to affordable housing near transit, because higher income households tend to reduce driving the most when living near transit. Results from that study show how both goals can be met through development that favors density over inclusionary zoning. These results, however, had limited implications due to three factors: household vehicle miles traveled (VMT) was a proxy for GHG emissions, the results cannot be generalized beyond Los Angeles, and residential self-selection could hamper the projects estimates of household VMT. This research project will address all three of these limitations through improvements to the projects existing model. |
