Car ownership has increased so rapidly over the past thirty years that many cities in the world are crippled by gridlocked traffic. What are the possible solutions for these cities?

#car #ownership #thirty #years #cities #world #traffic
Owning a car has become mandatory in the present lifestyle. Increased
traffic
 on city roads is creating chaos for people living in cities. The essay will discuss the reasons and possible solutions to overcome
traffic
 issues in cities. Globalization has created a greater supply of different models of cars for a cheaper price which created artificial demand for personal vehicles. Customers are tempted to buy their vehicle as supply is increased. Public
transport
 is poorly developed with the growing population which resulted in people preferring to drive on their own.
Also
, most of the people are lacking to plan their journey according to their schedule which is
also
 forcing them to cover any delays by using their
transport
.
Furthermore
, poor
traffic
 management system, lack of quality roads create
congestions
 on roads. The government should monitor laws to control the prices of cars to control the excess demand. The introduction of technology to manage
traffic
 and detouring the
traffic
 in high volume areas at specific times will help to avoid
congestions
.
Moreover
, the government should invest to develop the public
transport
 system by providing on-time service and by providing connecting services across the whole city. The governments should impose strict
traffic
 rules to avoid accidents which could create
traffic
congestions
. Decentralized development helps to decrease the population density and by doing that, the
traffic
 will be diverted to different directions. In summary, increase in own
transport
 resulted in
traffic
congestions
 in many cities but by proper development of other forms of
transport
 and strictly imposed
traffic
 rule along with the decentralized development could solve a part of the issue.
However
,
this
 could be a long time never-ending process that should be monitored with high priority.
