TOD Vision Plan

Project Overview

Through the U.S. DOT’s Thriving Communities Program, RiverCOG, in collaboration with Town of Old Saybrook, Town of Westbrook, Town of Clinton, and City of Middletown, is preparing a Transit Oriented Development (TOD) Vision Plan. The plan will encompass three levels of TOD planning to enhance multimodal connectivity and promote walkable, compact, and mixed-use development near region’s three Shore Line East stations and the Middletown bus terminal.

Three Levels of TOD

USDOT’s Thriving Communities Program (TCP) aims to provide technical tools and organizational capacity building support to communities adversely or disproportionately affected by environmental, climate, and human health policy outcomes so that they are better positioned to compete for federal aid and deliver quality infrastructure projects that enable their communities and neighborhoods to thrive.

Complete Transit-Oriented Neighborhoods
Focused on urban and suburban communities located within metropolitan regions working to advance equitable Transit-oriented Development (TOD) and improve safe, reliable and accessible transit service.

Project Area

The study will primarily focus on the transit station areas around the region’s three Shore Line East stations and the Middletown bus terminal.
