Controlling outward sprawl -- which needs to start at the county and state level -- is a mandatory first step.
With much of the growth pressure now directed inward, that growth should be encouraged in decent bus corridors and at rail nodes. In this scenario, the remaining greenfield sprawl will tend to be far more land-efficient as well. Transit will need to improve of course, including bus service covering anything with any density. Over time, your suburban nodes can start to ratchet down parking. Fast forward a couple cycles, and some of the low-density areas between your nodes will be in demand for further density. In other words, take the journey already underway in the West Coast cities. |
