some urban areas. As long as there are private cars, I guess the

problem

will persist.

This

essay will look at the ways in which the government and individuals could tackle

this

issue. To deal with

this

problem

,

people

should be encouraged to walk or to

use

non-motorised means,

such

as a bike, to move shorter distances. In turn, increasing spending on private cars should

also

be considered.

This

would not only minimize traffic congestion

be beneficial to the environment. The downside of

this

solution,

people

with a medical condition related to their legs, would not be able to

use

bicycles and would have to

use

more costly modes of

transport

. An alternative solution to

this

problem

is that the government should provide adequate, clean and safe public

transport

services whereby more

people

will

use

public

transport

instead

of taking their own private vehicles. As at the moment, there are a growing number of overcrowded buses than there are roads with

transport

.

Therefore

, if the government solves

this

problem

,

people

will be able to get to where they need to go by public

transport

.

This

problem

has a negative side,

people

who are in a hurry and can't wait for the bus to get to the right station will have to

use

private cars or taxis and overpay. In the conclusion, nowadays urban centres and towns all over the world are experiencing serious

transport

problems. Most of

this

is related to growing populations and inferior public

transport

. Still, some things that governments could do to solve

this

problem

are to improve public

transport

, develop new neighbourhoods and persuade their residents to

use

bicycles,

for example
