2025 Dormont by Design (Dormont Comprehensive Plan)
Comprehensive plans are powered by public engagement. The 2025 plan included three rounds of broadly promoted public meetings, 12 listening sessions, 50 interviews and focus groups, pop-up engagements, steering committee meetings, and 2,300 comments provided through the plan website. Goal 10 (Page 84) specifically speaks to TOD.
This is the plan published by PRT that assesses 66 fixed-guideway busway and light rail stations across Allegheny County to prioritize locations for Station Area Plans (SAPs) and Transit-Oriented Development (TOD). It includes Dormont area stations.

This plan was completed in 2019 by PRT (then Port Authority) in coordination with the borough with extensive community input. It re-designed the station and imagined what TOD might look like on a 2.5-acre site adjacent to the station comprised of PRT’s park and ride site and the borough’s parking lot.
This document is a guide created by Port Authority and regional planning partners to help the borough update its planning and zoning policies to promote Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) around transit hubs like Dormont Junction and Stevenson Station.
2012 Dormont Junction TOD Concept Plan
This plan was prepared by AECOM in partnership with Port Authority, SHACOG, and Dormont Borough for the Dormont Junction Station area. The proposed 2012 concepts feature up to 8-story buildings providing around 125 residential units, roughly 380 parking spaces, and active commercial storefronts along West Liberty Avenue and Park Boulevard.
2008 South Hills TRID Planning Study
This study was a collaborative multi-municipal initiative led by Allegheny County Economic Development, the Port Authority of Allegheny County (now PRT), Dormont, and Mt. Lebanon to evaluate transit-oriented development (TOD) potential surrounding three Light Rail Transit stations: Dormont Junction, Potomac, and Mt. Lebanon. The study analyzed existing land use, infrastructure, and market demand within a half-mile radius of each stop, proposing targeted infill development, pedestrian safety upgrades, and structured parking strategies. It also looks at leveraging value-capture financing which reinvests projected real estate tax growth directly back into localized transit and public realm infrastructure.
