#Mobilityatlas : Facts and figures about alternative mobility ke.boell.org/en/mobility-at… @boell_stiftung
@kenyancyclist @Sir_Labz African women have been cycling for the longest time. cycling is NOT a gender issue, it is an URBAN PLANNING issue. urban planners need to get serious & work. @shecyclesnbi @Naipolitans @ITDPAfrica @Arch_KE @TransportKE @Ke_NaMATA @KenyanTraffic @PLANNINGKe
@reimaginingnai 1. The city needs to feel clean and airy which means less cars, more trees and green spaces and organised refuse collection 2. less shadows/more sun so no super tall buildings. 3.Improved mobility for ALL(young, old, disabled, youth)
Join us for a lecture on sustainable mobility in Kenyan cities by renowned urbanist Dr Gil Penalosa (@Penalosa_G). Working with the city of Bogotá, he led the development of over 200 parks and oversaw the expansion of Bogotá’s weekly car-free event to encompass 121 km of streets.

Basically we need to do more to protect and grow our urban forest so that #Nairobi can be 'the green city in the sun' again. @MikeSonko @Environment_Ke @NairobiPlanning @reimaginingnai @Naipolitans @NairobiCityGov
Great piece. In Nairobi too, automobile centered urban planning took over as the model for a "developed" city. I hope we can change this for other towns near Nairobi, such as ongata rongai and Kiserian with bicycle lanes on Magadi rd @JamesMacharia_ @kenha

Protected bikeways and cycling lanes are an integral part of People-centred cities. Should Nairobi and Kenya at large adopt this? @MikeSonko @Ma3Route @KenyanTraffic @TransportKE @JamesMacharia_ @EstherKoimett @KURAroads @KeRRA_Ke @KeNHAKenya @ntsa_kenya @PDUDelivery #cycling

Buffalo, NY is tearing down an old, elevated freeway to replace it with a more people-centric design that better connects the city to its waterfront. @SmartGrowthCEO will be on a panel that will judge potential replacements. bit.ly/2Ug5wPj

Like many Dutch streets, Delft’s Krakeelpolderweg feels like it was always a place hospitable to walking and cycling. But as this archived Google Street View image shows, as recently as 2009, it was a traffic sewer with door-zone paint. The work of a cycling city is never done.

New York City eliminated parking spaces to build protected bike lanes. The plan was controversial, but it paid off. Other cities should take note:

Biggest dream when I started @Food4Education was to feed 100 kids a day. Then we built a central kitchen and the biggest dream became to feed 1000 kids a day. Today we started expansion to feed 10,000 kids a day from next term. #feedingthefuture
