Thesis Topic/Title:
Measuring the Effectiveness of Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) in South-East Queensland (SEQ)
Description
The proposed research is to examine in detail the existing TODs in SEQ to better understand and quantify the impact that established TODs have on promoting public transport and non-motorized travel. The focus will be a contextual evaluation of the effectiveness of TOD implementation in SEQ. The research will recognize and measure the extent to which self-selection of households near TODs captures mode share, will take into account the competitiveness effects of alternative modes on the effectiveness of TODs, and will endeavour to quantify the extent of alignment between land use offerings and their target users.
