This study takes the concept of pop-up bicycle infrastructure, which developed in importance during the 2020-2021 COVID-19 pandemic in cities across the UK, Europe, and the US, and investigates the potential of applying these principles to user-led bicycle mobility interventions in Sub-Saharan African cities. Through engagement with the public sector, users, and civil society organisations in three SSA cities – Nairobi (Kenya), Kampala (Uganda), and Cape Town (South Africa) – the study considers the opportunities that rapid interventions, led by user-needs, might offer in these countries, but also the challenges and barriers that might be encountered in planning and implementation.
