Africa’s transport leader

Mar

The MyCiTi bus network in Cape Town was recognized as “a leader in the field of African public transport systems.” The city was especially commended on creating a balance between necessary urban development and sustainability. The first phase of the MyCiTi initiative was rolled out in 2007 with the aim of improving public transport in Cape Town to provide citizens and visitors with easy and safe access to the city. The system has since been expanding and now includes routes to previously isolated areas such as Atlantis.

Gallagher Lourens architects are proud to have been involved with the development of the MyCiTi bus depots, in particular the Inner City bus depot, the Stables bus depot and the Atlantis bus depot. We believe in creating sustainable designs that minimize the negative environmental impact of buildings by efficiency and moderation in the use of materials, energy, and development space.
