CSIR engineer researchers sustainable transport obstacles

Council for Scientific and Industrial Research graduate engineer Mashudu Rathogwa is conducting research into the future of transport from a system dynamics perspective that has, thus far, focussed on bridging the gap between conceptualising and implementing transport sustainability plans and the challenges thereof.

Speaking to Engineering News at the Smarter Mobility Summit earlier in October, she said her research, which started two years ago, stemmed from a situation where many sustainability plans have been drafted but do not align with government plans.
