This program aims to increase transit in disadvantaged communities and reduce the impact of climate change. Knoxville-Knox County Planning, in partnership with KAT and the city, will develop a Transit-based Opportunities Map to identify locations for development along key transit corridors that target attainable housing and employment opportunities. Transit-oriented development (TOD) prioritizes efficient, equitable, sustainable development. It also helps reduce poverty and further benefit communities by:
- Encouraging greater transit use,
- Reducing automobile use,
- Maximizing existing infrastructure
- Reducing emissions, and
- Providing mixed and low-income housing options.
