A Case Study of Tramline Analysis with Transit-Oriented Development Approach: Bursa T2 Tramline

The article highlights the importance of transportation systems in urbanization processes, especially in densely populated cities where the need for transportation and infrastructure systems arises as cities spread towards their peripheries. Public transportation systems' priority transportation policies are developed by local governments to meet accessibility at the optimum level, minimize harmful environmental effects, and save time and cost. Transit-oriented development (TOD) is a planning approach adopted in many cities to reduce private vehicle use by developing public transit stations around high-density mixed land use and walkable environments. This study assesses the potential for TOD development at eleven stations of the T2 tram line on the Bursa-Istanbul road, using the 6Ds of built environment variables as indicators and GIS methods and applications to measure all spatial indicators. TOD indexes were examined for each station to identify potential improvement strategies, and each station was classified as having a high, medium, or low TOD index. By understanding the specific strategies for different TOD indices, this article aims to support development areas to improve local urban development towards higher TOD levels.
