Welcome to the Mobility Oriented Development (MOD) Study, a groundbreaking initiative by the Regional Transit Authority. While Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) has been a pivotal planning framework for specific corridors in Southeast Michigan, such as Woodward Avenue and Washtenaw Avenue, there has yet to be a comprehensive, region-wide understanding and commitment to this strategic opportunity.

MOD goes beyond TOD, presenting an innovative approach to urban development. It builds upon and expands the impact of TOD planning principles, transforming not only station areas but also creating dynamic "mobility hubs." These hubs serve as central points facilitating crucial connections across a broader geography, utilizing diverse transportation modes. In essence, MOD aims to enhance accessibility, connectivity, and vibrancy not just locally, but throughout the region.

This strategic MOD plan provides transit providers, local governments, and transportation agencies with a cohesive framework. By coordinating development and mobility improvements, the goal is to offer the citizens of Southeast Michigan improved access to core regional transit services. Join us as we redefine urban development and mobility, creating a more connected, accessible, and vibrant future for our region. Welcome to the future of mobility with the MOD Study.
