• W592835498 abstract "Non-motorised transport, particularly walking, takes a massive share in rural communities as a form of transport and medium of travel more than other modes of non-motorised transport or motorised transport. Primarily due to socio-economic characteristics of rural communities such as low income levels, unemployment, lack of commerce and development. The paper uses a local municipality as a case study reflecting on the pressing walkability issues in the municipality and highlights the opportunity presented by the latter to address the pedestrian challenges. It proposes mobility management programs in dealing with pedestrian challenges in the municipality and ultimately realising a walk friendly local municipality. INTRODUCTION Non-Motorised Transport (NMT) includes all means of transport that are human powered. Non-motorised transportation includes Walking, Animal-Power and Bicycling, and variants such as SmallWheeled Transport (skates, skateboards, push scooters and hand carts) and Wheelchair travel (Draft National Non-Motorised Transport Policy, 2008). The focal point of this paper would be on one type of non-motorised transport, that is walking which according to Litman (1997) is a fundamental human activity which provides physical fitness, enjoyment and essential mobility. Furthermore emphasising that, it provides connections between activities and modes. Non-motorised transport in most instances finds itself on the fringes of any development or recognition of significance primarily due to conventional approach found on policymaking and implementation of transport related initiatives. Phokwane Local Municipality is made up of three main three towns namely, Jan Kempdorp, Harstwater and Pampierstad, located in the north-eastern extreme of the Northern Cape Province (IDP, 2013 /2014). According to Statistics South Africa census of 2011, the Phokwane municipality population is at 63000 and there is a large number of Phokwane Local Municipality’s population that is unemployed, very poor and with low income levels; and experiencing low living standards implying that most of the population cannot afford to use any other mode of transport than non-motorised transport (LED plan, 2004). The municipality has no provision of non-motorised transport facilities for its residents who majority of them use the latter mode on a daily basis. The residents of Phokwane municipality find themselves fighting for space on the predominantly motorised streets or roads within the as they go on fulfilling their respective responsibilities such as going to work, school or essential services centres . For instance the issue of competition for space is quite a norm in arterial streets or roads that are mostly fed by collector streets. Subsequently it leads to fierce competition between pedestrians and motorised transport for space." @default.
