Under the Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Action programme, investments in public transport and transit-oriented development are highlighted as desired mitigation-adaptation interventions within cities of South Africa, Ethiopia and Burkina Faso . These interventions simultaneously reduce the vulnerability of low- income residents to climate shocks, prevent lock-ins into carbon- intensive development pathways and reduce poverty  . The combined mitigation-adaptation interventions in the land use transport systems of African cities are also expected to have sufficient short-term co- benefits  to be 'no regret' investments  . Only eight African countries have transport- specific adaptation measures in their NDCs . Five African countries have submitted NAPs .
