Description

A neighborhood turns car and motorcycle-free. Its residents try out an ecomobile lifestyle: they walk, cycle, use small electric vehicles, try an autonomous minibus and the new tramway. This is what happened in the Hamasen district of Kaohsiung, second-largest city on Taiwan. Ecomobility is economical and environmentally friendly. Ecomobility is the pre-requisite for a living city with streets for people, instead of cars. But how does ecomobility actually feel? How do new mobility habits emerge? How do residents experience their neighbourhood free of cars and motorcycles? Going Green documents the mise-en-scène in the framework of the EcoMobility World Festival organised by the city of Kaohsiung in partnership with ICLEI in October 2017. The authors and photographer accompany the citizens on their trips through the city both before and after the ecomobility experiment. The publication shows these stories, and thereby conveys the fascination of a new, future urban mobility. Text in English and Chinese.
