Two full-day transit-oriented development (TOD) training workshops started in November 2009—one in Westchester County and one in Rockland County. TOD experts from Project for Public Spaces, Reconnecting America and the Region Plan Association (RPA) conducted these TOD workshops. This spring eight more-advanced, two-day workshops will be held for municipalities in the 30-mile Tappan Zee Bridge/I-287 corridor.

The initiative, sponsored by NYSDOT, NYS Thruway Authority and Metro-North Railroad, is designed to provide municipalities with tools, resources and hands-on exposure to new land-use and planning techniques to meet community goals.
