Example: The Duck River Highlands Land Use Resource Study – An Excellent Example of Creating Resources for Planning for Open Space Conservation
• Broad land and historic preservation initiative to protect fragile rural resources of north west Maury County
• Initiated by local citizens and facilitated by The Land Trust for Tennessee
• Partners include CRT, THC, TNC, TWRA and NPS
• Community meetings: – Increased understanding of resources – Develop options to help landowners
conserve• Phases:
– 1) Inventory natural, cultural, historic and agricultural resources in the region
– 2) Strategic conservation efforts by the Land Trust for Tennessee and future county-wide comprehensive planning

A collaborative effort in developing land use plans and supporting transportation systems will result in:
• Improved community livability
• More efficient use of the existing infrastructure
• Improved economic vitality• Sustainability• Improved health

Density – the intensity of development – influences travel by:
• Concentrating people and services in limited area near transportation
• Increased demand makes alternative modes more cost effective
• Increase pedestrian, bicycle and transit systems
• Lower auto ownership, fewer and shorter vehicle trips
Relationship Between Land Use and Transportation – Density, Diversity & Design
![Page 89: Quality Growth Toolbox Training](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062319/554d8302b4c905390c8b5110/html5/thumbnails/89.jpg)
Diversity – the mix of different types of land uses – influences travel by:
• Concentrating different land uses in close proximity
• Jobs, services, recreation, schools and everyday needs within shorter travel distances
• Promotes trip linking and on-site capture of trips
• Place making

Design – the design and pattern of the built environment – influences travel by:
• Creates attractive, comfortable and secure pedestrian environments
• Creates places that attract people who linger and drive less
• Results in well-connected transportation systems
• Creates visual interest and encourages walking
