VDOT seeks public input about possible 'transit oriented development' surrounding Staples Mill Amtrak station
Table of Contents
The Virginia Department of Transportation and several partners are seeking public input for their small area study of the Staples Mill Road corridor in Henrico County surrounding the Staples Mill Amtrak. The groups are exploring the opportunity for transit oriented development adjacent to the station, and the plan’s recommendations will support an existing TOD concept developed by Henrico County and Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation for the area.
Transit oriented development features mixed-use development characteristics that rely upon adjacent transit systems, plentiful pedestrian facilities, narrow streets and a “tapering” of buildings as they become more distant from the public transportation hub.
