This paper examines the current implementation of TOD in China and attempts to explore the approach to the paradigm transformation of urban development in China. Evidence from Hangzhou illustrates that the current land-centered and property-led urban rail transit construction, although contributing to the economic sustainability of ‘urban development strategy’, has led to unaffordable housing prices and failed to decentralize population away from downtown areas. This study highlights inclusive growth models which integrate TOD planning with affordable housing for the floating population, not only to ensure equity in housing affordability and space accessibility but also to promote polycentric urban development strategies. The locations of inclusive growth models include new towns/sub-cities, traditional cores and suburbs, which are all based on existing industrial cluster areas and promote the full utilization of existing public service facilities.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":45131,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Urban Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2024-01-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2226585624000013/pdfft?md5=41f0751e16cdc939f26e53c7508990c4&pid=1-s2.0-S2226585624000013-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139540672","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This has increased conditions of vulnerability, although such conditions are not homogenously distributed in the territory. The present article proposes a multidimensional vulnerability index for social housing project residents, which apart from the socioeconomic indicator used in official measurements also applies two special indicators: (1) spatial mismatch from employment centers, and (2) an indicator for accessibility to public services and equipment. Unlike the commonly used one-dimensional indicator, the proposed index produces clearer discrimination of the vulnerability levels faced by social housing residents, allowing for better public policy design and improved public resource focusing.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":45131,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Urban Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2024-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S222658562300095X/pdfft?md5=544557974f8b0b0a5eaf107807575182&pid=1-s2.0-S222658562300095X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139397443","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this paper is to develop and test an ex-ante evaluation methodology to support participatory decision-making processes for the adaptive reuse of cultural heritage according to the circular economy perspective. A multidimensional and multicriteria evaluation framework was experimented in the city of Salerno, Italy, to assess alternative solutions for the adaptive reuse of four large historic buildings in abandonment, and identify a satisfying solution based on interactions with local stakeholders. The TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) multi-criteria evaluation method was used to compare adaptive reuse project alternatives including stakeholder objectives and preferences. Starting from 14 adaptive reuse proposals, the participative evaluation methodology supported stakeholders in the identification of 4 preferable solutions further developed and co-designed, as well as in the search of a final satisfying solution engaging diverse stakeholders groups. Moreover, operational circularity criteria for the adaptive reuse of cultural heritage were identified.

Moreover, the CA results reinforce that street centrality positively affects street commerce, especially when combined with access to transit and amenities.

This increased number of motorized vehicles is creating massive pressure on the logistic movement in industrial areas, and the performance level of roadways is deteriorating day by day. It has become quite difficult to meet the need for a reliable transportation system that can provide good compatibility for road users and logistical operations. Kanchpur Industrial Area can be classified as an industrial hub of Narayanganj District due to the presence of jute trading and plant processing industries. Over the years two bridges have been constructed in the proximity of this area named, the Kanchpur Bridge and Sultana Kamal Bridge to decrease the pressure on N2 National Highway; however, the situation is still not satisfactory and construction of a third bridge over the Shitalakhya River is under consideration by the Government of Bangladesh (GOB). Dhaka-Sylhet Highway is a section of the N2 National Highway system which connects the industrial district Kanchpur with Dhaka City. The main objectives of the study were to develop a methodology which can be used to measure the Level of Service (LOS) of roadways located in developing countries and use it to understand the necessity of the construction of the third Shitalakhya Bridge. LOS measurement procedures suitable for developed countries are not useable for developing countries due to the difference in road geometry, presence of non-motorized vehicles, and control delay at intersections. A procedure has been developed to measure LOS by combining standards of the National Institute of Technical Teachers Training and Research, Chandigarh, India; Highway Capacity Manual (HCM), USA; and Roads and Highway Department (RHD), Bangladesh. LOS measurement was based on four parameters: Peak Hour Factor (PHF), Travel Speed, Load Factor, and Volume/Capacity Ratio (VCR).

Reverse mortgage is a financial product where the property's ownership is transferred to an insurance company in exchange for a guaranteed annuity, while the insured retains the right to use such property until their death. Using monthly real state pricing data (2008–2019) provided by FipeZAP, we employ statistical modeling to predict future prices of properties to get the future insurer's expected results, while policyholders' annuity benefits are calculated using actuarial approach. To assess attractiveness, we calculate internal rate of return for different policyholder profiles and conduct profit test for the insurer. Our results indicate that, as an investment strategy, reverse mortgage has little or no attractiveness to the policyholder despite its actuarial fairness. However, it may be a viable option for increasing retirement income in case of a consistent real estate overvaluation. For insurers, the results are unfeasible due to the extended time lag for positive financial results, which only occurs after the policyholder's death. The inclusion of safety loadings can produce more favorable outcomes. Nonetheless, we recommend incorporating reverse mortgages as an elderly policy strategy to reduce reliance on state support during retirement, even if no attractive returns are provided as a financial investment. We also discuss policy implications (e.g., right to the city) to help the elderly stay connected to social support networks and local services.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":45131,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Urban Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2226585623000900/pdfft?md5=95bbe6ec66e50e9288b771ca4b678d41&pid=1-s2.0-S2226585623000900-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138525808","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
