Abstract:

There has been an ever increasing interest in the urban planning techniques, stimulated by the possibility that design strategies associated with the built environment be used well to control, manage, and shape individual behavior and socio-economic activity in cities. The numerous available evidence suggests that a combination of urban design strategies and Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) will help encourage our communities more livable, sustainable, and promoting the quality of our urban life. Therefore, the development of appropriate design techniques of TOD has become increasingly important as the TOD planning mode applied in the urban built environment. This study will try to integrate and classify the category of smart growth principles based on literature review. Followed by Fuzzy Delphi Technique (FDT) for obtaining expert’s opinions and screen the most important criteria of guiding principles. And then the empirical study of Taipei Metro Transit System will be demonstrated to show the application of our proposed methodology as well as framework. Finally, the adoption of Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) method and Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) model which combined with assurance region analysis will be applied to measure and select the most suitable MRT stations of Taipei Metro Transit System.
