Examining interaction effects among land-use policies to reduce household vehicle travel: An exploratory analysis by Kwangyul Choi, Robert Paterson

“…Though this paper uses data from just one MSA and thus is merely suggestive, it does point to a possibly more nuanced use of the commonly prescribed planning and design policy variable to account for variation in effectiveness based on differences in development intensity. For example, we find that greater land-use intensification has higher efficacy in changing vehicle travel behavior in areas with relatively higher development intensity. …”
