The urban development paradigm has shifted to a "Transit-Oriented Development" (TOD) approach, integrating Housing for All with Green Mobility. The strategy focuses on ensuring habitability for the urban poor through PMAY-U 2.0 while simultaneously decarbonizing the commute via a massive expansion of Metro, RRTS, and electric bus networks.
