Comments:

The City of Oakland Park desires TOD and densification to support transit. In 2009, FAU, in partnership with the Broward MPO & FDOT, conducted a transit oriented redevelopment study for Oakland Park Boulevard that provides urban design strategies, plans for redevelopment, and recommendations for relocating transit facilities.
Transit | Housing Oriented Redevelopment Study The Oakland Park Boulevard Transit Corridor Study (Alternatives Analysis) examined land use and redevelopment potential for the corridor.
Oakland Park Boulevard Alternatives Analysis Final Report (2014)

The City conducted a corrdior study for Commercial Boulevard at Andrews Avenue and proposed an overlay zoning district and bicycle and pedestrian improvements; however, this effort did not receive the necessary support. The City still hopes that Commercial Blvd east of the FEC rail line may have TOD potential.

The Cypress Creek Rd and Commercial Blvd interchange reconstruction projects that FDOT is currently undertaking will affect the TOD potential along Commercial Blvd.
