Modeling the Effects of Transportation Patterns on Land Use Patterns of Tehran City
Journal Title: Caspian Journal of Applied Sciences Research - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
In land use modeling and common urban transportation, mostly the focus is on the aspects of land use effects on transportation patterns and less on the effects of urban transportation factors. For instance, the effects of road networks, any kinds of public and private transportation systems, the distance from the city center, traffic planned areas on urban land use such as residential, administrative, commercial and so on. This survey is to analyze and evaluate the effects of transportation accesses on urban land use patterns in 560 traffic areas of Tehran city. Using the statistical data of Tehran city, the effects of access on urban land use is analyzed by using the multiple regression model. Access and transportation as variables, in a row, have the most effects on residential, commercial, social, administrative, health, educational and recreational usages. It is also observed in Tehran city that the freeway and expressway networks, major and minor Arterial, collector and local streets, the middle rate of private car ownership are the most effective factors on residential usages and development or the scatter of these usages. In other words, in Tehran city, in the areas with the most shares in residential usages, the access to the public transportation is poor and this factor plays an important role expanding the use of personal vehicles in Tehran. Similarly, the ability of explaining and describing the changes of the commercial, social, administrative, health, educational and recreational land use by transportation variables reduces.
