During Transport Month 2013, we would like you, the public, to share your ideas to change, fix, transform and improve transport in Cape Town. Should our streets should be designed with more pavement space or a high speed train from Stellenbosch or how about a transport hub in Khayelitsha? Your bold, small, crazy and less crazy ideas are welcome and we will be sharing them at our website.
At the end of month, we will collect and review all your ideas and share them with Mayoral Committee member for Transport, Brett Herron, and MEC for Public Works, Robin Carlisle.
HOW?
