The Active Mobility Forum (AMF) is a dynamic initiative focused on promoting active mobility in Cape Town, Johannesburg, and beyond. By championing cycling, walking, and human-powered transport, AMF addresses critical issues like climate change, health, and economic growth.
Founded in 2022 through a partnership between Cape Town’s Bicycle Mayor, Sindile Mavundla, and Young Urbanists, AMF unites diverse voices to advocate for safer, more sustainable streets. Cape Town’s traffic congestion, costing the city billions, underscores the need for solutions like improved cycling and walking infrastructure, which also support public transport.
Drawing on successful global models, AMF works collaboratively with communities and policymakers to drive public investment in active mobility infrastructure. Our PPP Safe Passage initiative aims to upgrade and protect cycling lanes, making cities safer and more livable for everyone. Together, we’re working to shape the future of mobility and create healthier, more connected urban environments. Join the movement – we’re just getting started!

ABOUT AMF
The Active Mobility Forum (AMF) promotes active mobility—such as cycling and walking—in Cape Town, Johannesburg, and beyond. Founded in 2022 through a partnership between Cape Town's Bicycle Mayor, Sindile Mavundla, and the Young Urbanists, AMF unites diverse voices to address climate change, health, and economic growth.
As Cape Town faces growing traffic congestion, rising emissions, and high transport costs for low-income residents, AMF advocates for public investment in active mobility infrastructure. Inspired by global success stories, we push for solutions like low-cost, protected bicycle lanes that can transform cities.
Through research, collaboration, and working with policymakers, AMF aims to make active mobility a cornerstone of livable cities. We're just getting started—join us in creating safer, healthier urban environments.
Recent impacts and wins include the launch of the Safer Streets Programme with Uber South Africa and partners like the Road Traffic Management Corporation to bring together organizations advocating for safer streets (National), curating the 2024 National Road Safety Summit on the 5th and 6th of November (National), and curating Smarter Mobility Africa's first-ever Active Mobility and Universal Access Stage on the 2nd of October (Gauteng). In Cape Town, we’ve also established South Africa’s first public-private partnership to upgrade cycling lanes from paint to protected lanes, advocated for the inclusion of induced demand in the City’s Comprehensive Integrated Transport Plan, and pushed for reforms ensuring that any new road includes NMT infrastructure, with class 2 cycling lanes separated from traffic by barriers.
