Some people think the best way to solve the traffic congestions in cities is to provide free public transports for 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Traffic congestions are a very common problem in big cities today together with the growth in the economy. The government is

also

implementing multiple initiatives to ease the situation.

First

of all, a lot of communities are still relying on public

transport

;

however

, the routes are not only limited to only most populated areas in the cities but

also

fewer frequencies of buses and trains during peak hours. Because of these limitations, communities still need to drive themselves and rely on taxis in order to reach their destinations on time. If there is free public

transport

available, many populations will start to stop driving but I think the authorities should

also

resolve the underlying issues by adding new routes and increasing the frequency of buses and trains. As the matter of fact, they're a lot of

people

who prefer to drive around in order to maintain their better lifestyle and privacy. Since the prices to buy cars are reasonably inexpensive, many families opted to buy cars for each of them usually. Even if there is free public

transport

offered by the authorities, I think they will most likely continue using their cars

instead

. The government should work together to educate those

people

with different programmes to reduce traffics congestion

instead

.

Moreover

, there is no exception for those

people

since they

also

suffer together in traffic congestion daily. I think that they're great benefits from free public

transport

for many

people

and a large amount of traffic could be reduced potentially. As much as the authorities can monitor and improve

further

to increase the free public

transport

, more

people

will be stopped driving on the road.
