For too long, our cities have been designed for cars, not for people. 🚗 ❌
Streets belong to everyone—not just those behind a wheel.
Let's build for mobility, not just speed. #RoadSafety#SustainableMobility#Harare
@_khaphela_@curious_edline The first experimental introduction of kapenta into Lake Kariba took place in 1963, when a small batch of fry was transported from Lake Tanganyika. A more substantial introduction -late 1960s, with larger consignments of fry successfully released on several occasions.
@kemcdonell Dreaming of buying a bike to ferry my 3 kids to/from school! They're nearby, but our neighborhood's car-centric design makes it tough. Hoping for a safer, greener way to get them to class @EcosafeRoad#bikeLife#sustainableTransport#familyFun
@cohsunshinecity (2) Will the plan explore incorporating shared space design principles in specific areas to encourage slower traffic speeds and prioritize pedestrian movement?
@cohsunshinecity Thank you for the update, Councillor Dzumbunu. In the area of multimodal traffic safety: (1) Will the plan prioritize building and maintaining sidewalks throughout the city, especially in high-traffic areas?, &.....
“While Mayor, I was often asked ‘how have you been able to afford this in #Copenhagen?’ I’d reply, ‘how have you been able to NOT afford it? 25 years ago we were a few days away from going bankrupt. So the city invested in the cheapest infrastructure… bicycling.” — @mortenkabell
Let us persist in advocating for cities that prioritize the needs of all road users, aiming for an equal allocation of space and the creation of lively, people-centered communities. #UrbanPlanning#PedestrianSafety#EquitableCities
It is of utmost importance to promote a fair distribution of space between cars and pedestrians in order to create safer and more inclusive urban environments.
By finding a middle ground that emphasizes walkability and accessibility, we can enhance public health, alleviate traffic congestion, and enhance the overall quality of life.
