About the EcoMobility World Festival

The second EcoMobility World Festival (http://www.ecomobilityfestival.org) will showcase the future of sustainable urban living in Sandton, CBD of Johannesburg, South Africa's largest city and financial capital, on October 1-31. During the month-long event residents and visitors can enjoy a safe, healthy, low-emission and resource-efficient lifestyle. The CBD of Sandton, often referred to as Africa's richest square mile, is one of the most congested precincts in Johannesburg. 80,000 cars and over 100,000 people move in and out of Sandton every day. The festival also includes an EcoMobility World Exhibition and a week of high-level dialogues on sustainable transport for the City of the future.
