The constant traffic is a diachronic issue in urban areas.
Although
Linking Words
last
decades the public transportation system has been upgraded, many citizens still commute with their own vehicles throughout the city. Personally, I support as contributing factors to the aforementioned phenomenon the unfrequent timetables for several urban areas and the fear of contagion in mass transit. The main reasons, as well as the measures of implementation,will be presented in Linking Words
this
essay.

First
and foremost, citizens tend to use their own vehicle in order to avoid awaiting too long for the public transport. Indeed, the timeline of routes is not well organised and it is very common for people to wait even half an hour on platforms. Linking Words
For instance
, recent statistics claim that the average waiting time between two routes in a row is 26'. Linking Words
Hence
, people drive their own cars so as not to lose valuable time. Another contributing factor is that people , especially in the Linking Words
last
two years, are afraid of viruses' transmission in public spaces and commute independently for safety purposes . Linking Words
In other words
, buses and metros are always too crowded, so it is very easy for a passenger to be affected by the flu or a virus. Linking Words
This
is can be clearly illustrated by the results of the public health research institute, which indicate the metro rail system as the most virus-polluted place.
Once the roots of the problem are identified, the necessary measures are easy to be described. The most effective step would be to create a very punctual and passenger-oriented timeline. Linking Words
This
could be achieved by creating new public routes and adding more frequent itineraries. Another equally effective solution would be to apply extra health safety meters in public transportations. In fact, if passengers would feel protected inside the public vehicles, they would commute with them. Linking Words
For example
, by requesting the wearing of a double face mask and gloves inside the metro area, the commuters will be 99% protected.
All things considered, Linking Words
although
the limitation of usage of individual vehicles seems to be critical, the apprehension of its fundamental causes enables both the state and the national transportation department to resolve it.Linking Words
