Main mall has a lot of history as the first mall of the City and it's right between Parliament building and local Gaborone council buildings Other old mall is called African mall with a bit of history as well Others will remind me if i have forgotten other malls New malls are River Walk, Game City, Molapo crossing, North Gate Mall, West gate mall, Sebele Center, Airport Junction mall, and the fields Mall and Square Mart

Is Gaborone Built by White People? just Curious.

[@buhlelungu9547]

Nope

[@ColdMeister-bd5cp]

The only thing they built was the railway to the north😂​@@masjm7278

Yellow plates is private cars, red plates are for government cars then ofcos we have those deplomatic ones starting with the number "10" then letters "CD"😁😁

[@FriendsOnTheGoo]

Thank you for the insight 😁 Was our observation right that white one goes with yellow in private cars?

[@GodfreyMogampane]

Yeah! I think inherited from our colonisers! They use the same colors for private, then we have blue numbers for public transport, have no clue how we arrived to dat

[@FriendsOnTheGoo]

[@yeah-yeah-tube]

i think its main mall bcs that area was the CBD before the current CBD so it was low key THE Main Mall you know but i'm not 100 percent sure

[@FriendsOnTheGoo]

You are correct, we just learned about that too from the comments 😊

[@pushingp6945]

Why are the street lights shaped like that 😂😂😂

[@FriendsOnTheGoo]

Mhmm we actually didn't notice until now 😅 maybe for aesthetics?

[@kelebogilekgotlaeng181]

Lol can u guys tell the wimpy story already because whenever u guys mention wimpy u just laugh. What's the story guys, what happened at that particular wimpy??

[@Chakinho07]

The white light is for the visually impaired/colour blind people

[@FriendsOnTheGoo]

Oh now that makes sense. Thank you for letting us know. Do you know why it's not implemented in all traffic lights in Gaborone? We noticed some of them don't have it

[@Chakinho07]

@@FriendsOnTheGoo it is an ongoing project where they're replacing all the traffic lights with smart traffic lights. At the end all will be replaced and they will be able to automatically sense traffic volumes
