This study reflects the emerging emphasis on 'transit-based development'--primarily residential development within easy walking or shuttle access to rail transit stations. This transit-based development differs from the more-chronicled transit 'joint development.' Rather than maximizing revenues, this development aims mainly at such goals as increasing ridership, reducing vehicle trips to the station, and increasing station attractiveness and safety. This new interest reflects several changing forces in the transit field: heightened air quality regulations, recent data on transit ridership by station proximity, and increased rail transit investment at the state and local levels.
