Optimization of the Implementation Mechanism for Comprehensive Rail Transit-Oriented Devel-opment(TOD)in Mega Cities:A Case Study of Shenzhen
With the fiscal constraints and limited land availability,the implementation of comprehensive rail transit-oriented development(TOD)faces such challenges as the complexity of diverse stakeholders and difficulties in advancing projects.There is an urgent need to optimize the development strategies and implementation mechanisms with specific focuses.Taking Shenzhen as a case study,this paper summariz-es practical experiences of the policy mechanism in comprehensive rail transit TOD and presents an analy-sis of key challenges during the stock development stage.These challenges include the difficulty of coordi-nated planning,barriers in land resources acquisition,and insufficient support for the sustainable develop-ment of rail transit.The paper proposes optimizing the existing policy framework and implementation mechanism from three main aspects:planning coordination and transmission,land management and sup-ply,and acquisition of construction and operating funds.The paper also offers recommendations for opti-mizing the implementation mechanism,including refining the coordination of relationship between rail transit and spatial planning,accurately aligning funding responsibilities between municipal and district gov-ernments for rail transit construction and operation,and diversifying funding sources.Regarding the opti-mization of the implementation mechanism for comprehensive rail transit TOD during the stock develop-ment stage,the paper underscores that it is necessary to integrate rail transit and spatial collaboration,accu-rately assign responsibilities to stakeholders,balance interests,and mobilize collective engagement to max-imize long-term comprehensive benefits.
