- do people actually use bicycle lanes in Cape Town? They've turned into smoking lanes in JHB.

Pic 2 - how do the engineers explain this design? Looks wasteful to me but I'm sure there's a reason for it.

!. Capetonians are serious about their cycling

2. I was thinking the same when I sourced it; style exceeding function but, I guess they saw into the future that drone was going to be a thing grin

Cape Town has a fairly large sport cycling scene

The city has spent R300 million on non-motorised transport projects, including the cycle lanes which have been painted green

The former but the caveat on the latter is "some" but a very rampant minority

Yeah if it's indeed a minority then they are WMDs - Weapons of Mass Destruction. They've totally destroyed Nigeria's image in SA. It's only here on NL that I'm beginning to see their sane counterparts.

ESSENTIAL ARCHITECTURAL ELEMENTS: Copper

COPPER SHEETING WAS FAVOURED AS IT IS AN AFRICAN MATERIAL THAT IS MINED LOCALLY AND WHEN EXPOSED TO THE ELEMENTS, CHANGES COLOUR

A truly fascinating country
Most beautiful country in Africa without a doubt. Nigeria would have been better if we utilized all our resources judiously.

What's really unfortunate is that apartheid was brutal and excluded the majority of our population from participating in the economy. We just celebrated 27 years of democracy and looking back, much has been achieved but still much to be done by way of economic parity.

Black and SAs now comprise the majority of the middle classes and lifestyles estates are booming to cater to this growing middle and upper class; not the narrative commonly believed and reported.
Good to hear black are starting to come up and be economically empowered. You have a beautiful country and have to work in unity with all the different races to become even greater and ensure equality.
