Description

This book examines non-motorized transport (NMT) behaviour, infrastructure provision and service delivery development in the African urban context. It challenges the conventional focus on transport network analysis and motor-vehicle dominated infrastructure decision-making, arguing that consideration of people walking, cycling and pushing carts are an essential requirement for urban transport planning and governance in urban Africa. Bringing together in-depth case studies, the volume examines non-motorized travel behaviour, planning and the institutional framework governing non-motorized infrastructure provision, safety of pedestrians and cyclists and reasons why NMT is underestimated.
