Reuse in commercial establishments is likely to be limited to paperproducts and packaging materials, since previously used glass and metal containers must meet stringent quality and sanitation standards. Any remaining dry recyclables and special waste, including e-waste, undergo final sorting and segregation for sale to recycling facilities.

Commercial establishments such restaurants, grocery stores, hotels, and markets primarily generate food waste that can be processed into animal feed or soil conditioners in composting plants. Food waste in high-income countries is collected and processed into animal feed known as Ecofeed in Japan and Singapore.

Segregated food waste can be brought to either composting plants or facilities that process these materials into animal feed. As with residential waste, ash from incineration plants and residuals from MRFs can be used as aggregates or as ingredients in the production of glass or ceramic items.

The industrial sector generates mainly special and hazardous wastes which are collected and ultimately disposed of at treatment facilities, WTE plants, or sanitary landfills. Packaging materials and some housekeeping waste can be reused directly at source. The remainder, including e-waste, is collected and brought to MRFs for final segregation before being sold to recycling facilities.

TOD involves a package of measures that both eliminate trips and reduce trip length. A cornerstone of any TOD project is the development of commercial and residential property investment around public transport stations. Investment from TOD initiatives can be used to finance the public transport system itself.

Recently, particular attention has been paid to the role that transit oriented development (TOD) can play in both promoting sustainable urban form as well as providing a financing mechanism for implementation.

• Fear of crime at stations and within buses • Lack of safety in terms of driver ability and the road worthiness of buses • Service is much slower than private vehicles, especially when buses make frequent stops • Overloading of vehicles makes riding uncomfortable

Likewise, public transport is undergoing a continual loss of mode-share across developing-nation cities. The following are among the contributing causes of this trend: • Inconvenience in terms of location of stations and frequency of service • Failure to service key origins and destinations
