Drivers should pay a fee in city street when there is a heavy traffic. To what extent do you agree or disagree.

an increasing number

of private vehicles appear on main streets, creating traffic jams during rush hours. In some regions, authorities have implemented regulations of charging fees

these roads. In my perspective,

this

may not bring positive effects.

To begin

with, road pricing could be advantageous in a degree. These fees could be collected by local governments so as to contribute to other purposes.

For instance

, the revenues could be used to upgrade the existing public transport systems

such

as construction of new metros and design of new bus lines, making it convenient enough for commuters to give up their private vehicles and choose these methods to go to work. Profitable though the pricing system might be, it may impact the economy negatively. As extra expenses have to be allocated to transportation, drivers who are less wealthy may be under

Consequently

of carrying forward these policies.

Instead

, more attention should be paid to facilitate the public transport system. To conclude, as paying extra money on roads might influence the economy rather than ease the heavy traffic during peak hours, I personally hold the view that no more fees should be charged on roads.
