Development plan of monorail and tramway in Surabaya City aimed to encourage the movement based transit. TOD (Transit Oriented Development) is model for integration of transportation and land use in order to encourage the transit ridership. The result of study in worldwide show the success of TOD application in increasing the usage of transit mode by developing policies on land uses around station/terminal. Therefore, it needs to adopt TOD in transit area of Surabaya City to achieve the sustainable transportation. This study conclude criteria of TOD that can be applied in transit area of Surabaya City are mixed land uses, high intensity of activities around station/terminal, integrated design of circulation and road network, and pedestrians/cyclists friendly design.Development plan of monorail and tramway in Surabaya City aimed to encourage the movement based transit.

<p>In order to use urban space effectively in Transit-Oriented Development (TOD), over-track buildings (built over railways), are becoming increasingly popular in Japan. From a construction and structural design point of view, the basement structure just beneath railways generally cannot be built while railway operations continue (interruption to operations is not permitted, In general).</p><p>This paper presents the structural design of a mid-story isolated high-rise building constructed over railways in Ikebukuro, Tokyo. The paper shows, not only the philosophy of the system, but also the structural design, full-scale experiments, and evaluation of the performance in each structural element. The authors believe that such a structural design will be one of the effective solutions to the over-track building.</p>

Aggregate studies of retail uses around fixed transit lines and in transit-oriented development are scarce. In total, 8,402 retail locations were identified within half mile of twenty-seven stations in Los Angeles County, USA. Sixteen spatial autoregressive (SAR) probit models help us identify five retail categories (everyday uses, opportunists, rivals, hotels, and large footprints) based on how the retail uses self-cluster, cluster with other uses, choose transit station type preferences, prefer building types and are influenced by gentrification. The results help planners understand that aesthetic improvements and zoning changes are likely to lead to increased restaurant presence and specialized retail clusters, while strip malls further from stations beneficially provide locations for everyday uses.

According to the development plan of MEBIDANG-RO, Pinang Baris has been stated as TOD Area. Bus Terminal will be the transit center within the area and have direct integration to buildings surround it. Issues that appeared solved with  utilizing the land that will be allocated as circulation area to prevent crossing circulation between transportation and passengers, contemporary architecture theme will be applied,  and the building shape will be following the circulation plan that has made before,  Therefore, the design of Pinang Baris Bus Terminal would fulfill the needs of users in TOD Pinang Baris.

Abstract Background Advances in the field of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) are revolutionizing healthcare, while massive migration flows and cross-border populations’ transit impose the planning, implementation, and evaluation of new integrated healthcare services and programmes. Nevertheless, no conclusive evidence exists on the vast potential offered by ICT to promote healthcare in migrant populations. Methods We carried out a systematic review following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis guidelines to retrieve, pool and critically appraise all the available evidence on the effectiveness of ICT-based interventions to support the healthcare provision to migrant and in-transit populations in Europe. We searched the electronic databases Medline and Embase, relevant grey literature and consulted with experts in the field. We restricted the area of interest to EU/EEA countries and included studies providing original quantitative data. Results Out of 127 retrieved records, 53 (42%) met the inclusion criteria. Included studies were classified in the following four interventions: implementation of healthcare services (47%), patients’ education (26%), healthcare services’ monitoring (17%), and interventions on providers (10%). The most relevant data refer to telemedicine, prevention interventions, and healthcare data sharing and the most represented specific health-topic is that of mental health (26%). We present available data qualitatively and quantitatively pooled by country, type of ICT, target population and health topic. Conclusions Selected ICT-based interventions have been implemented in Europe to promote healthcare in migrant populations; however, in most cases, no monitoring and evaluation exist on their impact, effectiveness, and cost-effectiveness. Strengthened efforts are needed to identify, plan, implement and evaluate effective interventions and share best practices to protect in-transit populations’ health. Key messages Information and Communication Technology (ICT) offer great potential to promote health-care in migrant populations. Effective ICT interventions and best practices should be shared across Europe.
