Apartheid spatial planning
has created a
poverty trap
on the outskirts of
a sprawling city.
Problem StatementThe Spatial Poverty Trap

Inadequate Public TransportMetrorail is the backbone of public transport butit is dysfunctional, unreliable, and under-capacitated

The Way ForwardSocio-economic upliftment will require real access to opportunity
Our objectives:
Opportunity City

Inclusive City
Caring City
Well-run City

The Way ForwardSocio-economic upliftment will require real access to opportunity
Multi-Modal Approach to Public Transport
Public Transport is key to providing both social and economic inclusion and to achieving our objectives and delivering on our mandate.
Non-motorised transport, with its advantages of being largely low cost, affordable, people orientated and environmentally friendly, supports our goal of sustainable transport.
![Page 7: Bicycling: How do we achieve greater mode share?](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052522/5482ab4bb4af9fd97c8b46aa/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Objective:
“To promote a sustainable transport network by encouraging
walking, cycling and the use of public transport and promoting
the principles of universal access in the design and
construction of transport infrastructure”
![Page 8: Bicycling: How do we achieve greater mode share?](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052522/5482ab4bb4af9fd97c8b46aa/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Vision:
“Cape Town will be a city where all people feel safe and secure to
walk and cycle, NMT is part of the transport system, public
space is shared between all users (NMT, special needs people
and motorised users) and everyone has access to urban
opportunities and mobility.”
![Page 9: Bicycling: How do we achieve greater mode share?](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052522/5482ab4bb4af9fd97c8b46aa/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Goals:
Increase cycling and encourage walking by creating a safe and pleasant bicycle and pedestrian network of paths to serve all the citizens in the Cape Town Area.
• Increase cycling and enable walking as modes of travel;• Create safe pedestrian and cycling environments• Develop a quality, attractive and dignified environment;• Promote a changed culture that accepts the use of cycling
and walking as acceptable means to move around in the city

NMT
• NMT facilities can be seen as more than the provision of a route to get from one place to another.
• System of interrelated parts that includes traditional equipment for movement - sidewalks, cycle paths, bicycle racks
• Plus it must take into account complex urban spatial determinants that services both the qualitative experience of users and the need to get around.
• It is also a cog in the larger public transport system which in turn implies a hierarchy of scale of service and facility and a need for amenities that accommodate interchange between modes of transport, both spatial and physical.
![Page 11: Bicycling: How do we achieve greater mode share?](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052522/5482ab4bb4af9fd97c8b46aa/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Role of NMT in the Cape Town context
• majority of Cape Town’s inhabitants do not own cars,
• NMT has to move beyond building cycle paths to creative ways in addressing contemporary socio-economic and spatial problems
• building NMT facilities must service the fundamentals of making an equitable, safe and liveable city for all its inhabitants

How do we get there?The way cycling is integrated with other public transport projects in planning and design
Through Integrated Transport Planning:• IDP – High level 5 year City plan – commitments to mobility• ITP – 5 yr Transport Plan• NMT plan• Bicycle Master Plan (BMP)
Transport Impact Assessments – part of development proposals• Transport & NMT impacts included.
![Page 13: Bicycling: How do we achieve greater mode share?](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052522/5482ab4bb4af9fd97c8b46aa/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
How do we get there?The way cycling is integrated with other public transport projects in planning and design
Through the integration of cycle facilities and infrastructure with BRT and rail systems:
• Phase 1A of the MyCiTi BRT system integrates NMT• Rail station upgrades to include cycle parking and storage
facilities• Upgrading of Park & Ride facilities at stations to include cycle locking facilities
![Page 14: Bicycling: How do we achieve greater mode share?](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052522/5482ab4bb4af9fd97c8b46aa/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
How do we get there?The way cycling is integrated with other public transport projects in planning and design
• Provision of U-Tube cycle racks with a roof cover at strategic points and at BRT stations.
• Cycles permitted on board MyCiTi (BRT Buses)
• Provision of cycle parking facilities, locker and shower facilities at Municipal Offices – and encouraging large employers to follow suit (Employee Trip Reduction Programme).
• Road network upgrades to include retrofitting of cycle facilities/infrastructure

How do we get there?Institutional Arrangements
Integrated Transport Planning
Prioritising NMT by ensuring dedicated resources:The City’s Transport Department has a dedicated NMT & Universal Design Unit within its structures.
Partnerships:ICE – skills transfer and capacity buildingNMT Forum – Cycling experts (Pedal Power, BEN, UCT) – advise City.
Funding:National Government – PTISG (Public Transport Grant)Provincial Government – Conditional GrantsCity budget
Political Support

Challenges/Barriers
High accident rates
Personal safety & security and driver behaviour:
Conflict & competition for road space – private cars, on-street parking, informal trading
Weather – high winds in summer / rain in winter
Funding
![Page 17: Bicycling: How do we achieve greater mode share?](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052522/5482ab4bb4af9fd97c8b46aa/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Key suggestions:
Clear vision & goals – cascaded into service delivery plans
Community participation & ownership
Urban partnerships
Sustainable funding – for new facilities & maintenance

“The importance of this policy and its benefits to the future generation of this country cannot be over-emphasised. Through non-motorised transportation we are ensured an opportunity to improve quality of lives, energy conservation and a safe sustainable environment for all future generation to come”.
