High Capacity Transit System Plan September 2009 Appendix D usually mixed with local‐serving retail. Commercial uses limited to small businesses and some industry. Typical residential density is 40‐100 units per acre, and typical employment FAR is 1.0. Transit may or may not be a focal point as in Regional Centers, Urban Centers, Suburban Centers, and Transit Town Centers. Typical peak transit frequency is 5‐15 minutes. Examples are Portland’s Pearl District, Greenwich Village in New York City, and University City in Philadelphia. • Transit Neighborhood. Primarily residential neighborhoods. Served by HCT at one location. Low to moderate densities. Economic activity not concentrated around transit stations. May include retail nodes but residential density often is not high enough to support much local‐serving retail. May offer significant development opportunities. Secondary transit service is less frequent and less well‐connected. Typical residential density is 20‐50 units per acre, and typical employment FAR is 1.0. Typical peak transit frequency is 15‐30 minutes. Examples are Plano, TX (outside of Dallas), Barrio Logan in San Diego, and Ohlone‐Chynoweth, CA (outside San Jose). • Special Use/Employment District. Often single‐use. May be low‐ to moderatedensity employment centers or focused around an institution or entertainment venue. Economic activity not concentrated around transit stations. Development is typically more recent. May be significant opportunities for mixed‐use development and regional connections. Secondary transit service is infrequent and focused on stations. Typical residential density is 50‐150 units per acre, and typical employment FAR is 2.5. Typical peak transit frequency is 15‐30 minutes. Examples are South of Market in San Francisco, Camden Station in Baltimore, and Portland’s South Waterfront. • Mixed‐Use Corridor. Have no distinct center but are a focus of economic and community activity. Mix of moderate‐density uses. Housing is typically more recent along the corridor, with older housing just outside. Good opportunities for infill and mixed‐use development. Typical residential density is 25‐60 units per acre, and typical employment FAR is 2.0. May be developed along streetcar, BRT, or premium bus lines with closely spaced stops. Typical peak transit frequency is 5‐15 minutes. Examples are International Boulevard in Oakland, Washington Street in Boston, and University Avenue in St. Paul. Of these options and considering the characteristics of the HCT corridors identified in the PAG region, suburban center and mixed‐use corridor models may be most appropriate. Suburban center type stations might be located in Oro Valley in the vicinity of Tangerine Road or Rancho Vistoso Boulevard at Oracle Road, in Marana at the Tangerine Road, Marana Road, and Cortaro Road interchanges, in Sahuarita at the Sahuarita Road interchange, and on I‐10 at the Vail Road and Kolb Road interchanges. A D-5
High Capacity Transit System Plan September 2009 Appendix D smaller scale version of the mixed use corridor model would be appropriate at other locations along the HCT corridors. Transit stations should be incorporated into local land use planning. The locations shown in Figure D‐1 are intended to provide general guidance where these stations might be located. Transit districts can be designated in at these locations. Within these districts, developments or redevelopments would be required to support transit ridership and would include a mix of high density residential and commercial development, pedestrian and bicycle amenities, and park and ride facilities, akin to the transit village concept, as described in Section 9.2. Note that in Figure D‐1, the potential future HCT stations are anticipated to initially include park‐and‐ride facilities to support express bus service, eventually becoming full stations as other HCT technologies become viable. Existing park‐and‐ride facilities could also transform to full HCT transit stations. D-6
