A Land Use-Transportation Model with Optimal Strategy Algorithm for Evaluating Transit-Oriented Development Decisions, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Pourzahedi, Hossein (Supervisor)
Abstract
There is a two-way relationship between land use and transportation. So each of them can be used to manage and control the other one. Land use can be Auto-Oriented, or Transit-Oriented. Auto-Oriented Development leads to urban sprawl, causing longer trips and increasing use of private cars. Problems related to this type of development appeared by the end of the 20th century. On the other hand, Transit-Oriented Development may lead to higher density areas, and higher transit use, providing better space for pedestrians and cyclists, as well as increasing environmental pollutions. Land use-transportation relationship hs been the subject of many recent studies. One of the previous models...
