This study looks at transit-oriented development (TOD) possibilities in Depot Village, Palmer. The Palmer Redevelopment Authority (PRA) commissioned the study, which was prepared by Fuss & O’Neill. In addition to providing an overview of TOD benefits for Palmer, the study identifies sites for a possible station location around the existing rail “diamond,” and points out issues with these specific sites. One illustration of the possible future sites was later used in the Palmer Master Plan (Aug. 2021, p. 25).
