To study the effectiveness and impact of rail transit development in developing countries and to improve urban development experiences based on the TransitOriented Development (TOD) model, this study takes the Addis Ababa Light Rail Transit (LRT) as a case study to analyze its effects on residents' commuting and the spatial distribution of jobs and residences after its completion. Based on official city maps, resident questionnaires, and interview data, a multiple linear regression model was employed to analyze the influence of different commuting methods on commuting time. The findings indicate that the light rail system has a limited effect on improving residents' commuting efficiency. Further GIS spatial analysis reveals that the overall distribution of residential and employment areas in the city is uneven, with suburban residential density being exceeding five times that of urban areas. The analysis results reflect that the failure to coordinate land use with the development of the light rail corridor is a primary reason for the low commuting efficiency. The conclusions advance the understanding of the adaptability and implementation strategies of the TransitOriented Development (TOD) model in countries with lowdensity sprawl and relatively underdeveloped economies.
