@virginactiveSA when are you going to fix your non functional app. There have been complaints since July/ August 2023. Anytime this year?

The scene outside our local cinema on a Saturday night. Not a result of some magical “Dutch DNA”, but decades of hard- and narrowly-fought political battles; leading to the bold reallocation of street space, deprioritization of motor traffic, and investment in alternative modes.

Tina Turner was raw. She was powerful. She was unstoppable. And she was unapologetically herself—speaking and singing her truth through joy and pain; triumph and tragedy. Today we join fans around the world in honoring the Queen of Rock and Roll, and a star whose light will never fade.

In 2020, Paris launched “school streets” outside 211 schools, closing streets to traffic during pick-up & drop-off. At least 22 have since become permanent pedestrian streets, creating dynamic new community spaces 7 days a week. 📍 Paris 🎥 @EmmanuelSPV

Public markets have existed in Boston since the 1600s with the Haymarket Pushcart Association tracing its roots back to 1820. Today, over 50 vendors sell low priced produce and fish every Friday and Saturday on Hanover, Blackstone and North Streets. 🐟 🍎 📍 Haymarket, Boston

“If you invite more cars, you get more cars. If you make more streets better for cars you get more traffic. If you make more bicycle infrastructure you get more bicycles… You get what you invite.” -Jan Gehl 📍 Montreal 🚲

@RSAWEB And do we get a refund for the mobile data we have to use to keep operational?

The Engineering team remain fully committed to restoring remaining affected services.

@RSAWEB What is going on? Time to change service providers? I can’t run a business like this!

After the •craziest• and consistent advocacy (for years!) to have colour paint crossings recognized and SANS compliant! Congrats and thanks to @RobQuintas Councilor Ian and teams for making this happen! 🕺🏻🔥 #streetsforpeople

Thanks for sharing @Citywatcha The report is illuminating- especially on the the massive scope for new renewable generation in Africa.

@JohnBauters So wish I could. Long way from Cape Town though.

@WCEDP @andrewboraine @food_dialogues And happen to be way better quality and in season.

#FoodSystemWalk: Many Cape Townians get their stock from #informaltraders like these, which pre-date supermarkets and source their stock from Epping Fresh Produce Market. @andrewboraine @food_dialogues

@carbonsmart Here here!

@berkie1 The Riverwalk - take an hour to stop off at the Kitchen Bistro next to the Clarke Street Bridge and people watch the Riverwalk steps across the river. I was lucky enough to see a wedding

Heading to Chicago next week for work. What are your must see / do urbanist activities or sites.

@urbanjodi I do!

Snapped this today. I like it but who even posts pictures (not stories) to IG anymore? Where do these things go now?

@KMBWalsh @ferialhaffajee What about Buzzer ?

Some help if possible, please? How can we (journalists) visualise the street light 💡 problem in Johannesburg? There are almost no street-lights working in one of the most dangerous cities in the world 🌍.

@ferialhaffajee Every property owner could install a solar light or two that casts over the street? An idea from my work in Khayelitsha 20 years ago. Tragic that instead of improving marginalised places greed, corruption and mismanagement is destroying once functioning parts of cities

@vishaannyc 😳

@CyrilRamaphosa 👎🏾 Not okay

Thanking His Excellency President Vladimir Putin for taking my call today, so I could gain an understanding of the situation that was unfolding between Russia and Ukraine.
