One problem faced by almost every large city is traffic congestion. What do you think the causes are? What solutions can you suggest?

Traffic jam

Suggestion

The traffic jam

A traffic jam

is an issue experienced by almost every big city. The primary cause of

this

phenomenon is the migration of people from villages for

employment

and the most viable solution is to create jobs in villages. The principal cause of

traffic

jams is that more people are relocating from the countryside to cities.

In other words

, remote towns do not have adequate

employment

opportunities for the educated people and they move to their nearby cities in search of jobs and settle there resulting in overpopulation and

traffic

delays in big cities.

For instance

, a meticulous research study carried out by the postgraduate students of Anna University found that the

traffic

in Chennai was increased by 5% in the year 2018 after the state government provided its approval to allow migrant workers from other places. A long term solution to

this

predicament is to create jobs in remote villages and towns.

That is

to say that industries should be established in the countryside and they should provide

employment

opportunities to the people living in that area so that the number of people migrating can be reduced which would eventually result in a reduction of

traffic

in the cities.

For example

, the number of people relocating to Mumbai from nearby towns was reduced by 10% after industries started to establish outside the city. In conclusion,

traffic

problems are experienced by all cities because of the people coming from the countryside in search of

employment

and creating jobs by establishing companies in villages is the only answer.
