Principles and Practices of Tod
- 1. Principles and practices of TOD Carlosfelipe Pardo Bogotá, July 11, 2013 Planning, paying, understanding
- 2. Yesterday’s discussions • We need proper planning – To reduce kms travelled – To “balance” densities and urban development – To improve sustainability and quality of life • We need money – To build needed infrastructure – To “balance” financial difficulties (e.g. operation) • We need to understand our cities
- 4. Cities included in the benchmark
- 5. Benchmarking system: 75 classified and weighted criteria
- 6. Bogotá 21 - publication • Available from www.despacio.org • Book with all results (English and Spanish) • Video with summary of project
- 7. Megatrends localized for Bogotá
- 8. Transit Oriented Development (TOD) - compact nodes linked by mass transit
- 9. Goal: Decentralized concentration • Polycentric development within Greater Bogotá is proposed, with Bogotá proper being the growth engine of the entire region • The outcome is decentralized concentration in the region, with regional satellites being growth centres in their own right • Satellites have to satisfy all daily needs of the inhabitants instead of just swallowing up the metropolitan population overspill • Hence, satellites cover all urban land uses, residential, commercial, industrial, recreational, educational, etc. • To separate the metropolis from its hinterland, the creation of a true Green Belt is recommended
- 10. Prerequisite: metropolitan planning authority • It is evident: Decentralized concentration requires a metropolitan planning authority • It should consist of Bogotá proper and 17 surrounding municipalities • The region should be as small as possible for efficiency reasons and as big as necessary to satisfy the growth potential at least until 2050 • Potential role model: the Regionalverband Ruhr (planning council for the Ruhr-region in Germany, 4,435 km2) established in 1920
- 11. Transit systems deserve an integrated transport environment and convenient transfer stations SUPPORTING
- 12. Transit systems need operational integration: time tables, interfaces, and ticketing systems

- 15. Phase 2: USD 2,5 Annual revenue: USD 440 million Phase 1: USD 1 The central areas of the metropolis benefit from a well-tailored congestion pricing system
- 16. Cicloparqueadero Servicio Ciclorruta Bicicleta pública (random locations) The central areas of the metropolis benefit from a well-tailored promotion of NMT
- 17. The outcomes • Less travel • More efficiency • Smart city!
- 18. What to do now? There are follow-up steps to be initiated: – Conceptualize TOD application for Bogotá, incorporating a component on social coherence – Kick-start the process for establishing the metropolitan planning authority for enabling polycentric regional planning – Implementation of the first step of the congestion charging system - Find a way to pay for all that stuff
- 19. Bogotá 21 financing To be financed from new funding sources such as congestion pricing, capture mechanisms of land and property value increments, etc. For the latter, we turn to the Hong Kong example

- 24. In-town check-in facilities IFC 2 Subway Station IFC Mall IFC 1 Four Seasons Hotel / serviced apartments Central, Hong Kong Island
- 25. TOD above Kowloon Station Kowloon Station is a stop of the Airport Express and the Tung Chung Line. It will be connected to the new Hong Kong High Speed Rail Terminus (Hong Kong to Guangzhou, Wuhan and Beijing; under construction). The area on top of it is called “Elements”.
- 26. Elements is a city in the city. It provides for perfect accessibility, including railways, feeder buses, taxis, and underground parking. It is the largest of the TOD nodes so far completed in Hong Kong. “Elements” above Kowloon Station
- 27. Tsing Yi combines high-rise residential buildings surrounding a community garden with a shopping mall and a railway station which connects the remote area directly to Hong Kong Island and to the airport. Tsing Yi at the airport express line
- 28. Tung Chung new town contains 32 high-rise residential buildings, half of it for social housing (to tear down the invisible Berlin walls), office towers, retail space, a large hotel, community facilities and gardens, and a railway station to connect it to Hong Kong Island (Central). TOD on top of the terminus and depot of the Tung Chung Line
- 29. LOHAS Park new town contains high- rise residential buildings for 60,000 people, office towers, retail space, a large hotel, community facilities and gardens, and a railway station to connect the remote area to Hong Kong Island (North Point). LOHAS Park (New Territories)
- 30. The Tseung Kwan O subway line connects LOHAS Park with North Point on Hong Kong Island. LOHAS park includes 40% of social housing. LOHAS Park (New Territories)
- 31. Profits from TOD in Hong Kong Property development includes profits from the capture of land value increments plus profits from the development of properties by MTRC, the Mass Rapid Transit Corporation of Hong Kong. MTRC is a stock registered company; the majority of shares is owned by the Hong Kong Government.
