Land Use
As land uses influence regional travel patterns and demand on the transportation system, and transportation connects land uses and provides access to developments, both need to be planned in conjunction with one another. NCTCOG supports mixed-use, infill, and transit-oriented developments that reduce vehicle miles traveled, enable the use of alternative modes of transportation, promote economic development, and improve air quality.
Through planning, grant programs, infrastructure investments, technical assistance, resources, and collaboration between local governments NCTCOG promotes land use-transportation connections. Learn more in the program links below.
