The making of green urban infrastructure: The Klipriviersberg Urban Biodiversity Corridor.
The greening of urban infrastructure is an important issue for cities in the global South. The planning of ecological corridors as part of greening urban infrastructure is a significant theme in Northern cities, especially in Europe. This article investigates the unfolding planning and development of an ecological corridor in Johannesburg, South Africa’s largest urban centre. The Kilpriviersberg Urban Biodiversity Corridor has multiple aims including the upliftment of the environment of the Southern areas of Johannesburg. Its key drivers have emerged out of a partnership between a conserrvation agency and a local tourism and business forum. This collaboration served to implement a range of projects which address challenges in the urban environment of Johannesburg South. The enhancement of leisure and recreation in the project area can be an output of this unfolding innovative development project.
