Paving the Way for a Car Free Day in Stellenbosch, South Africa
PublicSocial inequality affects transportation in Stellenbosch, including high usage of personal vehicles by predominantly White drivers who cause road congestion - and parking shortages. Working with faculty from the Department of Logistics at Stellenbosch University, our goal was to investigate considerations for a Car - Free Day in Stellenbosch to mitigate congestion issues. We developed a plan by interviewing experts and stakeholders and observing traffic. The Car Free Day - involves Park and Rides for driving commuters, local business engagement, and options for sustainable transportation. Our findings revealed concerns with - commute disruption and a racialized disparity with public transportation awareness and use, especially around minibus-taxis.
