Some people believe government should spend money on building train and subway lines to reduce traffic congestion. Others think that building more and wider roads is the better way to reduce traffic congestion. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

The traffic jam

s a better option. On the one hand, widening or constructing new streets have two main benefits.

Firstly

, due to the a increase of car users, there is not enough space for private automotive vehicles.

This

leads to an overload of existing roads,

the

government

should allocate their budget to upgrade and constructing new roads.

Secondly

their private vehicles. If the road system was bigger and had more lanes, individuals would be able to pass through faster.

Therefore

, building more highways is significantly vital to reduce peak-hour

traffic

congestion.

On the other hand

, there are two reasons why the

government

should invest in public transportation infrastructure. One reason is that trains can carry a large number of people at the same time.

As a result

, the more people using public transit, the less private cars being used.

This

would lead to fewer

Therefore

, building metro networks that work underground can be a wise decision. Residents can commute to work faster and safer so

traffic

jams can be reduced drastically. As far as I am concerned, the

can tackle
