In today's fast-paced world every
second
is very precious and holds great importance and to save time in commuting from one place to another people have started using more personal vehicles than public transportation. Linking Words
This
change was made to save time but Linking Words
instead
, it had the opposite effect on everyone's lives.
Nowadays, almost everyone owns a car which proves to be the reason for increased traffic jams in cities, especially, metropolitan cities where time is as valuable as gold. Residents prefer to take their own vehicle to work rather than travel by public transport and turns out Linking Words
this
choice has contributed to the increased road traffic as well as noise pollution. Linking Words
For instance
, the popular city of Mumbai has the most clogged roads during office and school times and the traffic tends not to move forward for hours. Linking Words
Hence
, more usage of cars has greatly contributed to more jams.
One of the biggest and most important steps the government can take to improve Linking Words
this
condition is to promote public transportation and encourage its citizens to ditch their own rides and use a bus, train, rickshaw or cycle Linking Words
instead
. Another thing that can be done is making new rules regarding environmental protection and holding rallies or seminars to educate people on how harmful cars can be to the environment along with which buses and trains can be made free for the population to use. Linking Words
For example
,someone from a middle-class family would choose travelling free of cost in a bus over spending money on petrol.
To summarize, I believe cars contribute greatly to the increased road jams and promoting local methods of transportation along with spreading awareness on the matter will help aid the issue.Linking Words
