Two of the three PDO-level Indicators already show results that either meet or exceed their respective end targets. On the PDO-level indicator of the number of cities incorporating TOD strategies in urban and transit plans, the end target is 3 while the actual number is 7. This means that all seven project cities have achieved the final target of this indicator. Among them, four cities have endorsed city-level TOD strategy or policy (Beijing, Tianjin Shijiazhuang and Guiyang), which is another PDO-level indicator, 6/26/2022 Page 1 of 6 Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report GEF China Sustainable Cities Integrated Approach Pilot (P156507) meeting the end target of 4 cities.
