Instead
 of expanding road by using free lands,

 offers a practical choice for drivers shortening the usage of private

 which will reduce the

 of purchasing

 of their own.
Therefore
, if there are only a few
cars
traffic
congestion
 won’t rise. To sum up, government and individuals by working together can shorten the

 of private

. If the rebuilding of roads will allow to reduce
traffic
 jam, not owing but hiring a

 decreases the
number
 of
cars
. In a similar way, people can avoid congestions on the highways.
