The report describes the role transit plays in evolving polycentric cities, with clusters of activity centers located at some distance from existing downtown areas. The study shows that the concept is widely used by metropolitan planning agencies in the United States, but in only general terms. The document describes the polycentric city concept, evaluated the rationale for such cities, reviews application of the concept, and contains case study information by 18 particularly evolved sites. The report should be especially useful to planning or policy staffs considering development options.
