    Abstract

    Poor air quality has a huge detrimental effect, both economic and on the quality of life, in
    Australia. Transit oriented design (TOD), which aims to minimise urban sprawl and lower dependency on
    vehicles, leads to an increasing number of buildings close to transport corridors. This project aims at
    providing guidelines that are appropriate to include within City Plan to inform future planning along road
    corridors, and provide recommendations on when mitigation measures should be utilised.

    Citation countsare sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science citation databases.

    These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science generally from 1980 onwards.

    Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
