The need for more housing and sustainable transportation has North County’s transit agency exploring ways to maximize the use of their land. North County Transit District (NCTD) says there is opportunity in the underutilized land around their transit stations.
“The goal is to transform our stations into vibrant, multi-mobility hubs that have mixed uses. Housing, commercial retail, as well as our transit operations," said Chris Orlando, the chief planning and communications officer with NCTD.
He said mixed-use projects are being proposed around four North County stations: Oceanside, Carlsbad Village, Carlsbad Poinsettia, and Escondido. The goal: "To not only drive ridership, but to also create revenue for the district and add housing to the region,” he said.
