The best for the government to solve the problem of traffic congestion is providing free public transport per day, 7 day a week. To what extent do you agree or disagree.

Nowadays with the increasing population and personal cars in the
cities
, being stuck in
traffic
became a normal routine in
such
cities
.
One
idea to solve
this
issue is to develop 24/7 free public transportation services.
Although
this
idea may solve most of the
traffic
issues, I believe it is not the ideal solution to
traffic
congestion. The development of free public transportation systems for urban areas like underground, tram, and buses network helps to reduce the
traffic
in
cities
.
Firstly
, using free public services are accessible to all individuals no matter whether they are from rich or poor levels of society.
In addition
, access to free
transport
services reduce using of private vehicles in urban areas and it is caused to reduce
traffic
jam and air pollution.
For instance
, a single underground train can transfer more than hundreds of passengers in just
one
trip from their beginning to their destination in comparison to how many cars need for that amount of travel. Free public transportation systems are too idealistic,
however
, most countries do not have enough budgets to develop
such
transit systems. At
first
, even if they developed railways, trams, and buses network with public budgets, people need to buy tickets and return to the government investigations on public
transport
.
Moreover
, it seems
to solve
Change the verb form
solving
show examples
the
traffic
issue needs more solutions than just free public
transport
. The government should construct roadways and
also
use civil engineering to build city structures, offices, access roads, hospitals, and other city elements and places.
For example
, In Tehran, people should travel more than once from
one
side of the city to another
one
to do simple office work. To sum up, the development of free public
transport
help to solve the
traffic
issue in crowded
cities
.
However
, solving
this
problem needs several complex solutions that manage beside together by the government like constructing highways and roads, developing public
transport
, and using civil engineering to reduce
traffic
.
