Book excerpt: Ebook Volume 2 of 3. A comprehensive, state-of-the-art guide to site planning, covering planning processes, new technologies, and sustainability, with extensive treatment of practices in rapidly urbanizing countries. Ebook Volume 2 of 3. Cities are built site by site. Site planning—the art and science of designing settlements on the land—encompasses a range of activities undertaken by architects, planners, urban designers, landscape architects, and engineers. This book offers a comprehensive, up-to-date guide to site planning that is global in scope. It covers planning processes and standards, new technologies, sustainability, and cultural context, addressing the roles of all participants and stakeholders and offering extensive treatment of practices in rapidly urbanizing countries. Kevin Lynch and Gary Hack wrote the classic text on the subject, and this book takes up where the earlier book left off. It can be used as a textbook and will be an essential reference for practitioners. Site Planning consists of forty self-contained modules, organized into five parts: The Art of Site Planning, which presents site planning as a shared enterprise; Understanding Sites, covering the components of site analysis; Planning Sites, covering the processes involved; Site Infrastructure, from transit to waste systems; and Site Prototypes, including housing, recreation, and mixed use. Each module offers a brief introduction, covers standards or approaches, provides examples, and presents innovative practices in sidebars. The book is lavishly illustrated with 1350 photographs, diagrams, and examples of practice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to the growing number of applications for the development of age restricted communities (55 years old and older) the Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT) through the Delaware Center for Transportation sponsored this study to examine trip generation characteristics and traffic impacts. Goals of the study include: Identify for the general Delaware population what the household structure and travel characteristics are for people 55 and older, and examine how household structure changes with age; Acquire available data to describe the household structures in age-restricted communities. Compare households in age-restricted communities with similar households outside of such communities; Research current literature and data on travel characteristics of those in age-restricted communities across the country; Identify any Delaware specific information that would be available to describe travel characteristics of age-restricted communities; Describe the number of age-restricted communities in Delaware and features that make them different from traditional housing developments. Examine the types of facilities offered to residents and how that might affect trip generation. National trip generation estimates as available through the Institute Of Transportation Engineers, and local traffic studies were reviewed. Current and proposed 55+ communities in Delaware were identified. The Delaware Travel Monitoring System (DTMS) Survey data were examined to provide a detailed picture of the expected travel characteristics of 55+ communities as compared with the general population. National travel data as provided by the National Personal Travel Survey was used to provide further information. This study produced a flexible model to assist planners in judging the impacts of age restricted communities.

Download or read book Community Livability written by Fritz Wagner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-06-25 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is a livable community? How do you design and develop one? What does government at all levels need to do to support and nuture the cause of livable communities? Using a blend of theory and practice, experts in the field look at evidence from international, state and local perspectives to explore what is meant by the term "livable communities". Chapters examine the various influencing factors such as the effect and importance of transportation options/alternatives to the elderly, the significance of walkability as a factor in developing a livable and healthy community, the importance of good open space providing for human activity and health, restorative benefits, the importance of coordinated land use and transportation planning, and the relationship between livability and quality of life. While much of the discussion of this topic is usually theoretical and abstract, Wagner and Caves use case studies from North America, Brazil and the United Kingdom to provide substantive examples of initiatives implemented across the world. This book fills an important gap in the literature on livable communities and at the same time assists policy officials, professionals and academics in their quest to develop livable communities.
Download or read book Enhancing Internal Trip Capture Estimation for Mixed use Developments written by Brian S. Bochner and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2011 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 684: Enhancing Internal Trip Capture Estimation for Mixed-Use Developments explores an improved methodology to estimate how many internal trips will be generated in mixed-use developments - trips for which both the origin and destination are within the development. The methodology estimates morning and afternoon peak-period trips to and from six specific land use categories: office, retail, restaurant, residential, cinema, and hotel. The research team analyzed existing data from prior surveys and collected new data at three mixed-use development sites. The resulting methodology is incorporated into a spreadsheet model, which is available online for download.
