Trail-oriented development

Development along trail

Trail-Oriented Development (TrOD) is a planning and development approach that focuses on integrating trails with nearby communities, businesses, and transportation systems. Similar to Transit-Oriented Development (TOD), TrOD encourages mixed-use, walkable, and bike-friendly environments centered around trail networks rather than transit hubs.

Description

Trail-oriented development is an urban planning approach that integrates trails with nearby residential, commercial, and parks development. Trail-oriented development attempts to enhance connectivity, support local businesses, and creates transitions between trails and adjacent properties through expanded amenities.[1][2][3] Developments using a trail-oriented development approach may include bike and pedestrian features (such as additional bike parking), designs that complement the trail or trail users, focusing on serving trail users, or simply a focus on providing users transportation options.[4][3][5][6]

Impacts

An Urban Land Institute study found that trail-oriented development can have positive health outcomes and support real estate development with an overall positive return on investment.[7][4] A study on the Mon River Trails System found that while trails can stimulate economic growth, they can also drive demand to a level that becomes a barrier for small businesses. The study suggests proper planning should focus on not just whether a trail will bring economic activity, but on the scale and type of the activity.[8]
