Some people think that in order to solve traffic and transportation problems, people should be encouraged to live in the suburbs or in the countryside rather than in the cities. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

As a result

of the growing population and

people

migrating to metro cities congestion and transportation issues are rising to solve

this

problem

people

should be motivated to live in a lesser populated region. I completely opine with

this

statement as a great amount of productive time is lost due to clogged city

roads

and will be discussing the same in my following paragraphs.

Firstly

, individuals, if moved to the countryside,the countryside can play a vital role in creating a balance as more number of cars travelling and literally crawling on the

roads

can be reduced.

For example

, in ,India an average worker spends about 5 days worth of time in traffic jams, which could have been used for different purposes.

People

can experience a new place with a new driving experience as there would be no clogged

roads

.

Secondly

, transportation can be eased with fewer

people

driving on the

roads

.

For example

, in India during an emergency commuting a patient in the ambulance can be a hurdle if there is a traffic jam. On average, the speed of the ambulance is 35 kilometres per hour whereas in Australia it is 100 it is just because the country restricts population density. To conclude, reiterating the point that cities should not be completely allowed to fill with full capacity as the moving of the vehicles around it gets slow and overall it leads to poor growth of the country.
