This document discusses land use and transportation planning. It begins by defining land use as how humans use land for activities like agriculture, housing, commerce and industry. Transportation planning involves providing facilities like roads, paths and public transit. A major issue is rapid urbanization changing land usage and creating a need for more transportation options. The document then describes the cycle of land use changes leading to more traffic and need for improved infrastructure. It recommends policies like nodal development and accessible walkable communities to better integrate land use and transportation planning. The benefits of adopting these policies include more travel choices, efficient services, safety and reduced environmental impacts.

2. INTRODUCTION
LAND USE: Land use means the humans use of
land that includes how humans are using land for
e.g. agriculture, residential, commercial, industrial
development etc.
TRANSPORTATION PLANNING: It involves the
planning required to provide necessary
transportation facilities to society/community.
(generally streets, highways, footpaths and public
transport lines)
3. ISSUE
The major issue with the land use is that the
migration of population form rural to urban which
changed the usage of land.
This developed a need of creating transportation
facilities such as roads, driveway access points,
sidewalks, and bike routes etc.
These facilities are the result of land use decisions

5. LAND USE AND TRANSPORTATION CYCLE
Land use change
Increased traffic
generation
Increasing traffic
conflicts
Level of service
Improvement in
service
Increase land value
6. POLICY FOR INTEGRATING LAND USE WITH
TRANSPORTATION
Nodal Development/Zoning concentrates
development (e.g., creating a village) to encourage
walking or bicycle use so that land between nodes
can be used for low density, low traffic land uses.
Livable Walkable Communities are municipalities
that provide facilities to promote walking, bicycling,
services, and activities that promote a healthier
lifestyle.
Access Management is the ability to control the
number and location of access points to a property.
7. RESULT OF INTEGRATING THE POLICIES
Adopting these strategies in Planning activity as
land use and transportation policies and in Zoning
as development standards, and implementing them
will significantly Improve the outputs.
8. BENIFITS
Provide a greater choice of travel modes
Distributing goods and services more efficiently
Improving road safety
Reducing the environmental impacts of the
transport system
Creating more attractive and lively urban and
suburban centers
9. CONCLUSION
Land use decisions directly impact the transportation
system and facilities in the region. Land use
generates vehicle trips leading to traffic congestion
and costly roadway capacity improvements.
To achieve sustainable development, planning
decision-makers should adopt and implement Master
Plan of land use and transportation policies and
implementation strategies should promote
Nodal Development / Zoning
Livable Walkable Communities
Access Management
