Study on Design Methods of Urban TOD Area Based on Resilient Cities Theory

Abstract

The outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) from 2019 to the present has caused great disaster to the whole human society. This paper is based on the "Resilient Cities" theory and "Transit-Oriented-Development, TOD" as the carrier to explore urban design strategies to deal with sudden public health events in urban areas. Firstly, the concept, development and theoretical connotation of resilient cities are reviewed. Secondly, to solve the three problems in the current city's response to public health emergencies, based on the theory of "resilient cities" and "health plus", the "TOD Healthy living mode" is proposed as the design guide of urban TOD area. Thirdly, the Sichuan Normal University subway station area is selected as the design site, and the site conditions and users are analysed. Finally, the design result of urban TOD area based on "TOD Healthy living mode" is proposed. And the life trajectory of four types of users, included students, office workers, retirees and purpose visitors, is simulated.
