Transit Friendly Subdivision Guidelines
Developers and regulators need to take into account the increasing
use of transit as a means of transportation when designing and approving
subdivisions. Incorporating transit design into new subdivisions should
be considered even if there is no transit service in the area at this
time. Expansion of transit service in the future may incorporate developments,
which are now not serviced. Creating a transit friendly subdivision
requires greater thought at the planning stage, but creates a more transit
efficient and desirable subdivision.
Detailed guidelines are available from BC Transit
in the pamphlet Transit Friendly Design Features.
