Metro plan has enforced the solution to the traffic congestion on the road. If a distance needs 80mins travel on road, the metro only takes 30mins

It is essential to gain a good access to the public transport. This solution can also reduce the congestion for pedestrian path on the ground.

Further development of TOD: bike and bus stop combined as a pair. Metro and light rail also has bus stop within 5mins on foot.
