Some people think that in order to deal with the problem of congestion in cities, privately owned vehicles should be banned in city centers, while others consider this to be an unrealistic solution. Discuss both sides and give your opinion.

In today's world, traffic is a major concern in most

in

centres,

instead

, several other measures should be taken to tackle

this

issue.

Firstly

, congestion does not happen only in

city

centres or the main localities of the

city

. Nowadays, every

city

is growing rapidly and the problem of traffic is persistent all over the

city

. Rather than, restricting the entry of

vehicles

into specific locations, it is better to reduce the number of

Secondly

, governments should encourage

people

to opt for public transport rather than travelling in their own

vehicles

. These steps will benefit both the government and the general public in reducing the congestion in the

cities

.

On the other hand

, not many

cities

are capable of restricting the use of private

vehicles

completely. There could be several reasons like lack of infrastructure, facilities and poor public transport arrangements. In

such

a scenario, the

people

residing in the

city

are left with no other option than driving in their own cars or bikes. When

cities

are struggling to implement strict rules, it is always better to start with simple steps like banning

vehicles

from entering some of the prime areas in the

city

. In

this

way, even the

people

will get acclimatized to the new rules slowly, so that they do not revolt when

further

restrictions are brought in the future. In conclusion, I believe that the local authority should come up with creative and innovative ideas
