It has been suggested that cars and public transport should be banned from city centres and only bicycles be allowed instead. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

It is argued that public transit should be prohibited from urban centres, advocating for the sole use of bikes.

This

essay completely agrees with that statement because the replacement of

cars

and mass transportation with velocipedes would reduce both

pollution

and

traffic

in central business districts.

downtown because of both air and sound

.

In other words

,

cars

and the majority of mass transit emit carbon dioxide which triggers air

pollution

,

also

these vehicles' engines emit loud noises.

Instead

,

bicycles

do not have

such

an effect on atmospheric

pollution

and sound

pollution

.

For example

,

bicycles

are the most widespread mode of transportation in Hannover, Germany, to prevent air contamination; they even designated 'no car days' to

further

encourage cycling. Another reason why public transport should be substituted with velocipedes is the fact that it contributes to

traffic

congestion in central business districts during peak times.

This

is to say that

cars

and buses as the mode of mass transportation take up a lot of space on highways and cause

traffic

gridlock during rush hours.

In contrast

,

bicycles

are not as large as them and can mitigate these cases.

For instance

, numerous bicycle lanes are being constructed in Tbilisi's crowded places, aiming to relieve

traffic

congestion. In conclusion,

while

private

cars

and public transport lead to contamination and

traffic

congestion, bikes alleviate both of them;

therefore

, I believe that these vehicles should be forbidden in urban central places, adhering to the exclusive use of

bicycles

.
