#CTBicycleMayor Jozi, we are coming to you on the 29th April for our second roundtable in-person discussion in partnership with @Uber_RSA on making #saferstreet ! 🗓 29th of April 🕒 17:30 to 20:00 📍 Lewes Rd, Westdene, Johannesburg, 2092 *RSVP*: docs.google.com/forms/u/4/d/e/…
@GuerreraCasas Really enjoyed the walking the street exercise, highlighting so many issues, too short pedestrian crossing green phases, sidewalk blocked by parking cars, cycle lanes used for other purposes... and some fun encounters with people @activeforumcpt
What a great session… the best part was walking the actual streets but I didn’t get any pics as I was too busy enjoying the exercise 🤓 looking forward to seeing how ideas for #saferstreets continue to evolve!

#CTBicycleMayor Join me together with @activeforumcpt @Uber_RSA and @young_urbanists as we find solutions on how we can make our streets safer. 📍 79 Bree Street Cape Town 🕒 17:30 -20:00 🗓 22 April This is a series of round table discussions in different cities.
Many saying R10k p/m on transport seems wrong. They're right. The "transport costs" here do reflect SA's dysfunctional cities, but aren't what they sound like. A better term, used by 🇿🇦 academic @spikekerr, who wrote on this in SA before WB/Harvard, is "transport tax". Thread:

Looks like a good campaign being launched around government parking lot sites in Cape Town CBD - many of which were part of “regeneration” projects eons ago, earmarked for development, with concepts that included social housing, but still stand empty.

Johannesburg is staring a full-blown crisis in the face as the collapse of the city's water and sanitation grid looks imminent, with concerns authorities do not have the R64 billion needed to replace and refurbish failing infrastructure. | @vercingetorics brnw.ch/21wISUZ

The @WesternCapeGov spent R73 million to build a parking facility in Maitland so that they could unlock their 3 parking sites in the inner city for better use. It is 2 years after the facility was finished and the cars still have not been moved. #land4peoplenot4parking
This is terrifying. Not the headline... I'm familiar with the science. No, what's terrifying is how far I had to dig through my news notifications to find this story. What's terrifying is that this headline is not #trending on every social media platform. 1/4

Huge news! USDOT awarded IDOT an RCN grant to restore the original street grid on Chicago's West Side! "Part of being a public steward is admitting when you got it wrong. The Eisenhower Expressway has divided communities for 70 years. That ends now," said IDOT Sec. Omer Osman.
