摘要

The population of Pittsburgh is expected to grow dramatically over the next decade. This influx of people may catch some communities within the Pittsburgh region off-guard, as their potential to attract these new residences and businesses to settle in their area cannot be met because of their lack of adequate regional transit.;The North Hills region of Pittsburgh has a valuable tool in its Route 8 transit corridor. It is comprised of both roadway and potential rail transit that, if used effectively, can give the area a competitive advantage in attracting more residence and business to the area. It will also create better connections between those residences and businesses with the local communities and downtown Pittsburgh. However, the current roadway will not handle the anticipated growth in the region, while the rail transit is not being utilized for public transportation. This thesis examines why the North Hills is not currently in an optimal position to attract new residence within the region, how the North Hills can utilize its existing rail infrastructure to create more conducive areas for business and residential growth, what way the region can develop the Route 8 corridor to create more effective land use and connections with its residential neighborhoods, and why the Route 8 corridor is in a unique position to create dense developments. This thesis discusses how principles of transit-oriented design, new urbanism, and the creation of dense developments improve communal and transit benefits for residences of the North Hills neighborhoods and better connects the area to the greater Pittsburgh region. The thesis contends that re-utilizing the existing rail transit within the Route 8 corridor, which is currently reliant on car-oriented transit for commuter purposes, and creating nodes of multimodal transit opportunities can be a catalyst for increasing the value of the North Hills' communities and produce development and growth within the region.
