Traffic

congestion is an increasing concern in urban areas. While some believe that funding infrastructure can improve the current situation others are of the
opinion

that there are better alternatives to resolve growing concerns of over-jamming vehicles. In my
opinion

, increased funding can only offer a temporary solution
thus
Linking Words
seeking other measures can better stabilise the situation. Supporters of investments firmly believe that renovation and reconstruction can improve over congestion of roads, thereby getting

in control.
For example
Linking Words
, widening roads, building bridges, vertical home expansion, and sea-link pathways can improve overcrowding.
However

, with the rise in population due to overcrowding of
cities

, migration of people from rural to urban areas and increased concentration of job opportunities in

better infrastructure will not be able to withstand the problem.
Hence

, financing these projects will not improve the current situation.
On the other hand

, the government must deep dive into the root cause of the problem and bring in policies and reforms to put an end to

jams in developed areas.
For instance

, rural development etc.
Such

although

this

Therefore

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.
