In some cities and towns all over the world, the high volume of traffic is a problem. What are the causes of this and what actions can be taken to solve this problem.

The population in various developed

cities

today has greatly increased markedly today due to the provided conveniences and

thus

traffic

has inevitably become a considerable

problem

in proportion to the growing

number

of

people

. There are several underlying reasons behind

this

development,

such

as improper changes in

cities

, but the

problem

is manageable. The main reason can be pinpointed towards the infrastructure of

cities

and the

have more

has a negative impact on

in a city with a small population compared to New York. Since owning a luxury

are addicted to self-comfort,

large

number

of cars. In some

cities

, the roads are so narrow for vehicles that there is no

second

option for

people

to reach their destination.

As a result

,

traffic

jams can sometimes stretch to the horizon and

people

are forced to sit in their cars for hours to reach their homes or workplaces. There is no magic formula to solve the massive

traffic

problems, but some precautions can be taken to ease the congestion on city roads.

One

of the most effective ways to solve

this

problem

is to make public transport more attractive to

people

.

For example

, the authorities can advertise to

people

the importance of using transportation or develop the stops of subways, trains or trams. In

this

way, when

people

realise that their travel time is reduced, they will be more likely to use public transport.

On the other hand

, municipalities can introduce various legal restrictions on the

number

of special vehicles.

For example

, some

people

own more than

one

car

, and

this

number

can be reduced to

one

car

.

Nevertheless

, these measures are not enough to solve the

traffic

problem

completely. In conclusion, the

traffic

problem

has become

one

of the biggest problems in many

cities

due to the high population. The interesting thing about

this

problem

is that there are plenty of places to live all over the world, but

people

choose to live in crowded

cities

.

Nevertheless

, governments can alleviate

this

problem

by making some adjustments.
