It is argued that people should live in cities

of suburbs or countryside in order to avoid

traffic

and

transportation

problem.

This

essay disagrees that people should live in cities to avoid problems caused by

traffic

and

transportation

.

Firstly

,

this

essay will discuss the reasons behind increasing

traffic

and

transportation

problems.

with one of the main reasons for

traffic

and

transportation

problems

are

Suggestion

is

the increasing

number

of vehicles. People nowadays prefer using their cars more even if it is just for

going

doing

errands. In fact, distances that can be travelled by walking or cycling are

also

covered by cars. In our day to day

lives we

lives, we

use

cars even

cars, even

if our work is 10-15 minutes away from our place. All

this

can be avoided if the

government

takes the right measures. One best example for reducing

traffic

would be India's capital

city

Delhi. Due to increasing

traffic

and pollution in the

city

the

government

had decided to impose a law that stated that cars would run on an odd-even

meant the cars with even

encouraged people to

second

most important thing would be how

this

can be avoided in suburban cities or

countryside

Suggestion

the countryside

. The best possible solution can be increasing the

number

of public

transportation

and imposing certain rules and regulations that will make sure people avoid using cars.

For instance

, in India, Delhi

government

reduced the price of metros and buses so that more people

use

public

transportation

. Apart from

this

some countries have taken major steps in decreasing

traffic

.

For example

, due to increasing

in Qatar the

government

came up with the rule that only maximum two members of a family can drive vehicles.

This

avoided the

number

of cars running in the

city

and encouraged people to

use

public transport. In conclusion

traffic

in suburban cities can be avoided if

correct

Suggestion

corrective

measures are taken. People do not have to change their homes due to these issues. With correct initiatives taken by the

government

people can live in their own homes in

countryside

the countryside

or suburban cities for as long as they want.
