The Netherlands is now regarded as a world leader in transport planning, but it wasn’t always that way. In the 1960s, buildings were being bulldozed and canals filled to make way for new roads. A new film speaks to the activists who helped turn the tide: ow.ly/ec7250xAO0a

And yes a BIG THANK YOU to Lebogang @BicycleMayorCT who created the solid foundation @smavundla can now build on. Remember her wise words: – at Cape Town, South Africa
“In a context of very little social solidarity and racialised divisions, a cycling culture can hopefully help us break down those divisions when we encounter each other physically in mobility into the same spaces, even though we come from different places.” @BicycleMayorCT

I stay in Khayelitsha and I cycle to work which is in Pinelands sometimes CBD town. I know not everyone wants to do this perhaps it could be an option for those keen to commute to work by bike. I save alot. @PedalPowerPPA @smesserschmidt @OpenStreetsCT @BicycleMayorCT – at Khayelitsha, South Africa
