In this study, the detailed database about the regional characteristics targeting 1,784 districts in 61 cities is built to analyze the relations between urban layout or regional characteristics and the traffic environmental load on the micro scale, considering the actual urban planning or the situation of housing development. And focused not only the spatial layout of districts in cities but also the land development timing, and analyzed the relations of traffic environmental load from both sides.
In conclusion, in spite of the similar positional relationship of districts in cities with the commercial area and the station and so on, districts developed in early time have the smaller traffic environmental load than those developed in late time, and land development timing is also important factor of traffic environmental load in the planning of the compact city.
