Increasing the price of petrol is the best way to solve growing traffic and pollution problems. To what extent do you agree or disagree? what other measures do you think might be effective?

Traffic and pollution

problems

have become an everyday topic of the recent world. Some

people

consider that raising the

cost

of

petrol

is the best method to get rid of these

problems

.

However

, I disagree.

This

essay will explain why increasing fuel price would not be enough to tackle

such

problems

, rather it should incorporate some other measures as well. Surging the

cost

of fuel alone would not solve the

problems

of congestion and environmental pollution.

don’t consider using it because of it’s being overcrowded and mostly late for the destination because they require to wait longer at the station.

Therefore

, it is obvious that convenience would be prioritized more than the elevated

cost

.

However

, adding two other factors with increased

petrol

price can lead to a better solution.
