Actors in urban development use and respond to many plans made by organizations, both public and private, at different times with different purposes and scopes. Coping with such networks of information and constraints presents an opportunity to advance development of planning support systems (PSS). The Plans and Regulations Information Tool (PaRIT) is a computing interface that enables spatial queries to identify and access plans and regulations. We illustrate the capabilities of PaRIT in applications to a light rail project in Maryland. Choices made in developing PaRIT demonstrate a feasible approach to accessing a network of plans and highlight opportunities for advances in PSS.

Geospatial data, analytics, and visualizations are critical decision-making resources for building community resilience. However, many communities are unable to collect and use this data. This study evaluates how a Geodesign planning approach using qualitative, statistical, and spatial analysis empowered a data-scarce American Indian community to create a flood-resilient community-based land-use plan. Geodesign is a stakeholder-engaged planning approach integrating geospatial analysis, information technology, visualization, and design strategies for complex problem-solving. Results show that Geodesign enables data-scarce communities to combine local knowledge and scientific modeling, merge the strengths of each knowledge source, and support resilience and community-based land-use planning.

Bus rapid transit (BRT) has emerged as a promising solution to support sustainable urban development. Using smartphone mobility data, this quasi-experiment in El Paso, Texas explored the impacts of BRT on visits to non-work-related business destinations and socioeconomic disparities in these impacts. Fixed effect models were used to compare visit frequencies between treatment (within 0.5 mile of BRT stations) and control areas. Results showed that BRT increased business destination visits, especially among low-income and older populations. Further efforts are needed to investigate the full range of BRT benefits and strategies to promote transit-oriented development around BRT.

This study examines the cascading effects of long commutes on the work-life balance and subjective well-being of commuters from Hong Kong’s new towns. We collected questionnaire surveys and developed a structural equation model. Our results show that new-town commuters experienced lower levels of travel satisfaction, work-life balance, and subjective well-being. Meanwhile, our qualitative analysis of interview transcripts reveals that new-town residents endure longer commutes for various reasons but primarily to enjoy the better natural environment and living conditions available in suburban areas. However, the inadequate supply of public amenities and social and cultural venues in the suburbs can undermine well-being.

Urban processes are shaped by heterogeneous knowledges produced by multiple rationalities. Acknowledging this diversity, this article asks: What is the role of universities mobilizing diverse knowledge and their articulation with planning processes? It reflects on the role of Cuban universities in translating diverse and situated knowledge. Building upon debates on epistemic justice and recognizing the nuances of the Cuban process, it provides a historical review of the changing role of universities, discussing how different knowledge paradigms have governed their urban planning work. Pondering this history, it concludes by discussing current challenges of universities to advance toward more mestizo urban knowledges.

We examine to what extent Public Participation GIS (PPGIS) contributes to a successful participatory process and how context affects the tool’s role in both process and results. We tested a tool to visualize accessibility effects of transport projects, using it in participatory workshops related to a major bus corridor proposal in Santiago de Chile. We innovated in the tool itself, to visualize overcrowding effects as a way to include comfort issues. We found that the GIS encouraged a sincere and realistic conversation among participants. Perceptions of the project did not necessarily improve, but the tool did reduce polarization of opinions.

A community’s resilience is strongly influenced by the growth management guidance provided by its network of plans. Wetland loss has been shown to amplify flood damage. This study explores the relationship between plan integration and wetland alteration, comparing the findings from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and League City, Texas. Combining spatial analytics, a Plan Integration for Resilience Scorecard™ evaluation, and correlational statistics, we find that wetland loss is significantly associated with plan integration and development patterns and is less acute in League City than Fort Lauderdale. Integrating wetland protection policies throughout a network of plans helps build resilience to flood hazards.
一个社区的复原力受到其计划网络提供的增长管理指导的强烈影响。湿地的丧失已被证明会加剧洪水的破坏。本研究探讨了规划整合与湿地变化之间的关系，并比较了佛罗里达州劳德代尔堡和德克萨斯州利格城的研究结果。结合空间分析、弹性计分卡™(Plan Integration for Resilience Scorecard™)评估和相关统计数据，我们发现，湿地损失与规划整合和发展模式显著相关，并且在League City的程度不如劳德代尔堡严重。将湿地保护政策整合到一系列计划中，有助于增强对洪水灾害的抵御能力。

The State of Maryland is investing in a new light rail line, the Purple Line, in the suburbs of Washington, DC. Whether or not the corridor it travels through is gentrifying is unknown, as are the impacts of both the construction and neighborhood gentrification on the local economy. In this paper, census data are used to identify neighborhood gentrification along the rail line. With a novel data source, employment, wages, and firm closures are tracked and analyzed. Even in advance of completion of the light rail line, much of the Purple Line Corridor is gentrifying, and impacts to businesses are potentially significant.

The presence of pedestrians is definitory for street vitality. This study employs statistical and geospatial analyses to explore how built environment factors explain changes in “pedestrian flows” and “stationary activities” on fifteen street segments in Shanghai, at a mesoscale. Detailed indicators were collected through field surveys, behavioral mappings, and counting. Changes in “pedestrian flows” are distinguished from those in “stationary activities”. Synergies reinforcing the latter emerged between small commerce, residential entrance gates, and buildings aligned to the street. Road widths show negative correlations with stationary activities, contradicting China’s modern street planning practice. Corresponding recommendations for design and planning are provided.

This article examines the redevelopment of Toronto’s Regent Park, a neighborhood formerly comprised exclusively of public housing. Since 2006, it has been undergoing a transformation into a mixed income neighborhood. Through interviews and document analysis, the paper traces the complex and changing development agreements as redevelopment progresses, highlighting the state’s entrepreneurial efforts and the dynamic nature of urban planning and policy. We find that practices of financializing public land are highly fluid, and that efforts to derive public value from public housing redevelopment are tied to shifting community expectations regarding the return of benefits to residents.
