Public Transport Knowledge Seminar | Transit-Oriented Development: Growing Ridership

Gautrain Management Agency in partnership with Wits Business School (WBS) and Gordon Institute of Business Science (GIBS)

As cities strive for sustainable growth, Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) has emerged as a powerful strategy to enhance urban mobility, reduce traffic congestion, and increase public transit ridership. This webinar, Transit-Oriented Development: Growing Ridership, explores how well-planned, mixed-use communities built around high-quality transit systems can encourage greater use of public transportation while supporting economic development and liveability.

Join leading urban planners, transit agency leaders, and development experts as they discuss best practices, real-world case studies, and innovative policy tools that link land use and transit planning. Learn how TOD projects can not only grow ridership but also create vibrant, walkable neighbourhoods with improved access to jobs, housing, and services.

Whether you're a city official, planner, developer, or transit advocate, this session will provide valuable insights into leveraging TOD to build equitable and transit-friendly communities that thrive
