16.3 Goals
In moving towards TOD, strong emphasis shall be placed on integrating
development and public transportation strategies. In doing so, the goals
for CDP on TOD are to:
TRANSIT-ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT GOALS
Introduce an efficient Public Transportation system to link
major centres/townships and to encourage a Transit
Oriented Development especially within the SEC and its
immediate surroundings.
Organize growth at the SEC level to be compact and
transit-supportive.
Enhance SJER economic base by capitalizing on the TOD.
16.4. Objectives
To support the goals for SJER TOD, several objectives has been identified
to integrate land use development with public transportation systems;
Ensure transit is supportive of land uses;
Increase density around transit stations;
Create pedestrian oriented design;
Make each station a centre for activity; and
Manage parking, bus and vehicular traffic.
16.1 Introduction
Among others, the development of SJER will focus on Transit-oriented
Development (TOD). This is in line with the policies of the NPP:
NPP:The TOD concept will be promoted as the basis of urban planning
to ensure viability of public transportation.
NPP:Transportation systems in all major urban centres shall adopt a
modal split of 50:50 between public and private transport.
TOD seeks to implement a more sustainable approach to urban
planning in the use of land around transit stations.
16.2 Definition
Transit Oriented Development (TOD) is a walkable mixed-use form of
development typically focused within 400m radius of a transit station
or any public bus network. Development shall be concentrated near
stations to make transit convenient for people and encourage rider
ships. This form of development utilises existing infrastructure, optimises
use of the transit network and enhances mobility for local communities.
The CDP will identify major centres such as commercial nodes,
employment concentrated areas and institutional nodes, as areas to
be included in the TOD.

SECTION B PLANNING AND IMPLEMENTATION
16.5 Transportation Development in SJER
A. Overview
SJER has an existing imbalanced modal split of about 70:30 with a
bias of private transport. In addition, Table 16.1 shows that the traffic is
estimated to grow at an average rate of 4.2% up to the horizon year of
2025 where the volume of daily t rip generation is estimated to double
from the current figures in 15 years; up to the year 2020.

If left unchecked, the large amount of traffic generated will cause
traffic congestion and represents an immediate and future challenge.
It follows that the key strategy for public transportation development in
SJER is:
KEY DIRECTION
TOD 1:
To ensure efficient movement of goods and people by provision
of various forms of transportation systems; to provide access to
locations within SJER and in particular to the SEC area.
B. Enhance Regional and Local Public Transportation System
Provision of a comprehensive Public Transport network to consist of a
combination and integration of:
i. Subject to the results of a National Interest Study currently being
undertaken, a High Speed Rail System linking SJER to Kuala
Lumpur;
ii. Light Rail Transit (LRT) (proposed for intercity connection);
iii. Monorail (to serve within the CBD of Johor Bahru);
iv. KTM Komuter train;
v. KTM intercity express trains (proposed ERL);
vi. KTM freight trains passing through the Central District;
vii. Inner City transport (tourist city bus, town bus and monorail);
viii. Buses (Stage, Express, School, Tourist and Tour); and
ix. Taxis.
Proposed High Speed Rail System
A National Interest Study is currently being undertaken to evaluate the
viability of such a proposal. The proposed High Speed Rail envisaged;
links Kuala Lumpur to Johor Bahru at a speed of around 300 km/hour.
Proposed KTM Intercity Express Trains (ERL)
The proposed KTM intercity express trains (ERL) shall operate with an
average travel speed of 120 km/h and is proposed to ply the route of
Johor Bahru Sentral II in Senai and Johor Bahru Sentral I in CBD of Johor
Bahru; it can be achieved within 15 minutes of travel time.

Light Rail Transit (LRT)
By the year 2010 the population in SJER area is forecasted to be 1.5
million, of which about 0.54 million and 0.59 million are within the
Johor Bahru Municipal Council and Majlis Perbandaran Johor Bahru
Tengah administered areas respectively. These findings indicate that
existing and proposed road network system cannot cope with the
continuous traffic growth. In line with the proposals under the NPP,
SJERs transportation system is envisaged to be more mass-oriented rail
base urban public transportation system to reduce usage of personal

mode of transportation. As identified, there are three optimal routes
linking the new urban growth centres, Pasir Gudang, Nusajaya, Tebrau
and Skudai, to Johor Bahru Sentral I. It is proposed that this route will be
served by the LRT service with 38 stop stations and 10 transfer stations.
For ultimate integration, the regional rail based transportation
infrastructure must achieve the objective of linking the new business
and financial centre in Johor Bahru with Singapore. It is recommended
that the possibility of linking the proposed LRT from Johor Bahru to Johor
Bahru Sentral I be extended to the Singapore MRT at Woodlands. It
follows that this will require the agreement and facilitation of authorities
in both Malaysia and Singapore.

Monorail
A further rail based and environmental friendly inner city public
transport mode is the monorail system. It is proposed that it will be
elevated above the existing road network that links the CBD main
attraction point to the commercial inner core and Johor Bahru Sentral I.
There are two optimal routes linking Johor Bahru Sentral I to the Lagoon
Puteri Transfer Station on the west and Majidee Square Transfer Station
to the east. A total of 16 stop stations within 14.5 km route length were
identified. Implementation of the monorail system in Johor Bahru CBD
will reduce the usage of personal modes of transportation thereby
relieving traffic congestion and solving inadequate the need of car
park facilities.

In transforming SJER to be mass-oriented urban rail system, the existing
KTM routes reserve must be utilised to serve the need of Mass Rapid
Transit System that is fully integrated with the proposed LRT system. There
are 25 stations and 6 transfer stations proposed for the 3 MRT routes
i.e. connecting Johor Bahru Sentral II Nusajaya, Johor Bahru Sentral II

Buses
In the short to medium term, bus services should be upgraded
and continue to play the role as the backbone of SJERs public
transportation until the mass-oriented urban rail system takes place
(targeted to be after 2010). In the long term, bus services must beoriented to act as the feeder service to the rail-based transport system.
Several corridors have been identified and needs the support of
enhanced bus services. The corridors can be largely categorised into
two types; the corridor with the sufficient passenger demand, and the
corridor without sufficient passenger demand. For the corridor with
sufficient passenger demand, it is very important to maintain or increase
the patronage by providing better bus services. Poor level of bus
services might result in further decrease of passengers. These include
Skudai, Tebrau and Pasir Gudang Area.
On the other hand, commuters of corridors with insufficient passenger
demand are proposed to use their own means of transportation. It is not
easy to attract those people to use public transportation; thus, higher-
level bus services such as express bus services may be required to serve
the designated corridor.
C. Supporting Public Transport Facilities
Transit supporting facilities are facilities for public transportation users. It
is normally located along transit corridors like the rail network and road
based public transport such as buses and taxis that serve as feeder to
the main public transportation network. Three types of transit supporting
facilities are proposed namely the multi-modal transportation terminal,
the independent rail stations (MRT, LRT, Komuter, monorail and trams)
and road base transportation facilities in the form of bus and taxi
stands/stops/stations.
Multi-modal Transportation Terminal
The multi-modal transportation system will consists of different modal
transportation networks that, by themselves, allow a traveller to move
from one location to another. Inter-modal connection provides the
ability to transfer from one modal network to another.
To achieve the above objective, a local transit terminal is proposed to
be located within the CBD of Johor Bahru. The existing bus terminal at
Jalan Terus is proposed to be upgraded to accommodate the local
transit terminal and have a dedicated pedestrian route connection
between the Johor Bahru Sentral I and the Transit Terminal located at
the existing Johor Bahru KTM terminal. This terminal is also proposed
to be upgraded to function as a local transit terminal that hosts suchfacilities for LRT, ERL and Monorail services.
To cater for regional linkages, a Regional Transit Terminal known as
Johor Bahru Sentral II at Senai is proposed. This terminal will function as
a regional transit terminal for the Johor Bahru District transit system. It
will consist of facilities for High Speed Rail system, LRT and KTM Komuter
Services.
Park-And-Ride Facilities
In order to encourage the use of public transport, alotted car parking
lots must be provided in the vicinity of the terminals and stations.
Commuters and visitors that drives into urban areas should be
encouraged to utilise the peripheral car parking lots and switch to LRT,
buses and other means of public transportation system to complete
their journeys. Since private vehicles are still the preferred mode of
travel, services which accommodate the usage of private vehicles such
as park-and-ride could be a popular alternative. The park-and-ride
facilities will encourage the use of public transport systems.
Bus and Taxi Stand
Taxi stands are proposed to be located at suitable locations within
the proposed road hierarchy and within the larger building projects;
particularly adjacent to bus stops such as the KTM Impian Perdana and
Kotaraya II. Taxi stands are also proposed along Jalan Tun Abdul Razak
and Jalan Terus to service the proposed pedestrian priority areas.

16.6 Integrating Land Use and Transportation Development
The growth, form and land use pattern of SJER, particularly for road
network, is inextricably linked to the form of transport readily available
to provide public mobility. Access to vehicular mode of transport has
come within easy reach of a large part of the population, creating
demand for linear or sprawling form of development along the route
or corridor of major highways and roads. The CDP has recognised the
need to integrate the development and public transport strategies;
transport planning must be integrated with the overall land use planning
as it is an integral element of land use planning. In addition, transport
infrastructures, particularly road and rail network, can act as a catalyst
to growth and major development. Hence, the primary objective of
transportation and land use planning in CDP is:
KEY DIRECTION
TOD 2:
To integrate transportation development, in particular public
transportation, with land use development in order to support
sustainable travel choices and to promote compact forms of urban
environment towards increasing efficiency of the transport system
Measures proposed in the CDP to achieve the above are:-
Emphasis on the more sustainable mode of transportation that is
the transit-based network; rail and other form of public transport
that supports or act as feeder to the rail network;
Integration of rail network with land use development strategies
by directing and focussing land use development towards areasalong transit corridors and within TOD zones; and
Intensification of development around transit stations (TOD zones).
Land Use Development Strategy for Integrated Rail Network
Effective land use and transport planning is aimed to minimise the
need to travel or influence the mode of travel through the coordinated
arrangement or location of traffic generating uses in relation to existing
transport, particularly the more sustainable transport mode, and
influencing proposals for new route that is in line with land use planning.
It is the objective of SJER to provide a comprehensive and integrated
transportation system that serves inter and intra city travel and to
integrate land use development with public transportation and road
network.
To achieve the above, the proposal for rail network will serve areas
that are identified as growth areas such as Nusajaya and Senai Airport;
employment centres such as Tanjung Langsat Industrial Area, Pasir
Gudang Industrial Area, Plentong Industrial Area, Ulu Tiram Industrial
Area, Port of Tanjung Pelepas and University Teknologi Malaysia;
commercial centres such as Johor city centre, Nusajaya CPA, Senai
district centre, Skudai district centres, Ulu Tiram district centre and Pasir
Gudang district centre. Local centres such as Tanjung Langsat, Rinting,
Permas Jaya, Mount Austin and Tanjung Pelepas will also be served
by rail together with other areas of focus where development will be
concentrated within the urban growth boundary of SJER and within the
SEC.

Within SJER, 33% of the area (74,465 hectares) will be within the three
kilometre catchment radius of the planned public transport network;
both rail based and road based.Out of the above, 3,415 hectares of
area in SJER will be directly accessible to pedestrian (within 400m radius
of the planned transit stations). Areas outside this radius will be served
by a feeder system; involving road based public transportation such as
buses and taxis.
In the SEC, 76% of the areas (34,463 hectares) are within the public
transport catchment coverage. Areas outside it are areas zoned as
environmental protection zone.
To ensure integration and implementation of the proposed rail network,
land use and transportation development within public transport
corridor will be tailored towards securing the reserves or right of way
for public transportation network. Areas and road reserves affected by
proposal for rail network will be developed to incorporate space for rail
facilities; either through dedicated reserves or shared space within the
road reserves. Other reserves that require supporting public transport
facilities such as terminals, stations and lay-bys will be integrated within
the planning and development of areas within the corridor or coverage
of public transport network.

16.7 Intensification of Development within TOD Zones
To increase the usage of public transport, and to ensure it would
be considered as a viable option for daily commuters, residential
development and activity centre development will be located, with
access, close to the proposed transport networks. Key trip generators,
such as higher density residential development and principal, major
and specialised activity centres, will be concentrated on the principal
public transport network the MRT, LRT, Monorail and tram services.
The key measure to integrate land use development with transportation
planning while promoting transit-oriented development in support of
public transportation is to provide priority and incentives to development
areas around the transit stations. This is to be implemented throughintensification of developments within designated TOD zones.
KEY DIRECTION
TOD 3:
To facilitate intensification of TOD zones by incorporating mixed
use development with high-density residential, high commercial
plot ratio and integrated community and business facilities.
A. Transit Oriented Development Zone (TOD Zone)
The TOD zone is defined as a zone within 400m radius of a rail station or
terminal; intensive development will be promoted.
Intensification of TOD zone will be promoted through the following
measures:-
Transit supportive uses and high intensity activity nodes within
400m walking radius of a transit station;
High density residential and high plot ratio of commercial
development within transit planning zone;
Mixed use development of commercial, residential, community
facilities and other civic uses;
Pedestrian-friendly environment; and
Good urban design
Providing pedestrian-friendly environment is a priority in TOD zones as
pedestrians are the primary user of the transit and associated TOD uses.
The distance that a pedestrian is likely to travel to take transit, in this
case, rail mode transit, is typically and has been universally determined
to be within 5 to 10 minutes walk or approximately 400m.

B. Mixed-Use Development in TOD Zone
Within SEC, the TOD Zones are designated for mixed-use development;
either incorporating commercial (offices, retail and other compatible
commercial uses) with residential, in order to support transport facilities
and to promote 24-hour activities in the form of residential activities
within centres, or incorporating offices, retail and compatible industrial
activities such as clean industrial activities, research & development
(R&D), design & development (D&D). TOD zones outside SEC on
the other hand, are designated for further intensity residential or
commercial development.
To encourage mixed-use development at TOD zones in SEC, bonus
plot ratio can be exercised. For Johor Bahru CPA and Nusajaya CPA,
higher plot ratio is given to TOD Zones compared to other commercial
developments within the CPA.

C. Transit-supportive Land Use
Transit-supportive land uses encourage transit use and increase
transportation network efficiency. As such, pattern of land uses around
transit stations should be characterised by: -
high employee and/or residential densities;
promote travel time outside the am/pm peak periods;
encourage extended hours of activity, throughout the day and
week; and
attract pedestrian users/generate pedestrian traffic.
The primary transit supportive land uses that will be encouraged within
TOD Zones in SJER are employment uses (office, industry), residential
(high density), retail (pedestrian oriented street retail and shopping
retail with strong pedestrian connections), civic use, entertainment,
recreational and cultural facilities.
