Optimizing TOD Infrastructure Financing

This document discusses financing transit-oriented development (TOD) infrastructure. It explains that TOD enhances public transit by making it easier for people to walk, bike, or drive to transit stations. Key infrastructure needs include sidewalks, bicycle lanes, utilities, and roads. Local agencies fund local infrastructure while regional agencies fund larger regional infrastructure. Funding can come from direct user fees, taxes, debt, grants, equity, and value capture strategies. Successful TOD financing requires a clear vision, market assessment, infrastructure plan, implementation roles, and funding sources assessment. Various tools like fees, debt, grants, and emerging strategies can provide funding depending on the location and project size.
