The best way for governments to solve the problem of traffic congestion is to provide free public transport in 24 hours per day, and seven days a week. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
In
this
burgeoning world, congestion on the roads is increasing with the rise of population. Some people believe that free public transit can help to reduce the traffic on roads but Linking Words
this
will have some negative impacts for system owners. In Linking Words
this
essay, I will discuss both views and explain why I strongly disagree with Linking Words
this
opinion.
To start with, If the system will provide a free public movement channel Linking Words
then
most of the humans will stop using their own vehicle for daily travelling and it will directly impact the traffic by reducing the number of motors on the roads Linking Words
hence
reducing the pollution and accidents as well. Linking Words
Secondly
, public transport can be used for advertisement and more folks using them have more knowledge about Linking Words
such
products which will give an indirect benefit to the government economically.
Linking Words
In contrast
to the above point, there will be more crowd in public transport which will make the journey uncomfortable for some people like a senior citizen, children and pregnant ladies. Linking Words
For example
, in a fully occupied bus, a pregnant lady may not get a seat. The budget is another loss for the authority from Linking Words
this
action. Because money earned from tickets can be used in the maintenance of bus stops, railway stations and vehicles. Linking Words
Therefore
Linking Words
this
is a huge loss by making travelling fares free for everyone.
In nutshell, the government may reduce the gridlock with free public transportation service but it has some negative effects like budget and more people in the buses, metro. Linking Words
Therefore
, In my opinion, reduced fares should be the better approach to deal with the traffic congestion rather than making it all free.Linking Words
