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.
