Towns and cities should be divided into zones so that all the schools are in one area, all the shopping malls are located together and all the industrial sites are situated close to each other. To what extent do you agree that urban areas should be split into distinct zones?

Some
people
believe that towns and cities should be organized and split into
zones
,
such
as educational, shopping, and industrial
zones
. Personally, I agree to a certain extent with the idea that industrial sites should be located
in particular
zones
far from residential areas. One clear benefit of splitting cities into distinct areas is that it will help protect
people
from pollution from factories in industrial districts. It is undeniable that living near the industrial zone can cause many serious health problems due to air, water, and soil pollution produced by factories.
Hence
, locating these factories together far away from residential and educational
zones
can make it easier for the governor to restrict these harms to the environment and
people
.
This
way, it can help to keep fresh air and green space in the city.
On the other hand
, separating too many
zones
could lead to traffic congestion problems if there are not enough options for transportation.
People
have to spend more time commuting across the areas.
For instance
,
people
have to travel from residential parts of the city to the school area to put their children,
then
travel to the shopping malls zone for grocery shopping before commuting back to their home.
However
,
This
problem can be solved by providing sufficient public transport and locating some essential
zones
together. In conclusion, the benefits of dividing towns into distinct
zones
seem to outweigh its drawbacks.
However
, some
zones
could be located near each other in order to make
people
's lives more convenient.
