Urban Operations for Transit-Oriented Development

The Urban Operations for Transit-Oriented Development initiative was implemented by Quito Urban Lab with the support of the Mayor's Office of Quito and the Secretariat of Territory in the context of the construction of the first subway line of the Quito subway. The objective of this initiative was to promote social inclusion and deliberation to define strategies and sustainable management models in the development of the 15 subway stations. In addition, it sought to achieve a fair distribution of costs and benefits among different stakeholders regarding the operation of the subway. In this sense, a forum was organized consisting of different working groups to generate a document with strategies to promote a sustainable structure. Representatives from government, the private sector, academia, international organizations, and members of civil society participated in this forum.
