There have been some problems with public transport in your area recently. Write a letter to the manager of the transport company. In your letter -describe the problems -explain how these problems are affecting the public -suggest some changes that could be made.
Dear Sir or Madam,
I hope you are well. I am a permanent resident of the Heping Square
area
. I am writing this
letter to complain about the issues with public transport in my area
.
The major problem with buses in my area
is that the timetable setting of the bus
is not reasonable. All the buses in my area
stop operating after 8:00pm, which is not friendly as most people living in my area
are young people and some of them complete their work after 8:00pm, however
, there is no bus
available for them to go home.
To resolve this
issue, I strongly recommend that the last
bus
arrive in my area
should be extended to 10:00pm. I understand that the passengers after 8:00pm are not as many as before the time, and thus
you can reduce the frequency of bus
in the last
two hours. Therefore
, it will solve the difficulty of the public nearby without bringing operation pressure to the transportation corporation.
In the end, I hope you and your team can treat this
problem as your priority. Your response to me within two weeks will be highly appreciated.
