Some people think it is more important to spend money on roads and motorways than on public transport systems such as railway and trams. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

It is recently argued that there should be more investment in traffic infrastructure than the systems of public

transport

. Personally, the writer inclines towards the contrary as a way to reduce the number of vehicles on roads, which

such

as congestion or in environmental terms. Nowadays, it is acknowledged that there are hundreds of traffic participants using their own cars or motorbikes to freely move around.

This

but mostly is because of their unpleasant experience when catching a bus or taking a train, which leads to a significant increase in private

transport

public transportation is less used .

As a result

as well as

a noticeable number of accidents, and even more roads will be built up.

Hence

, if the public

services are invested to be improved and renovated,

might encourage more people to use public conveyance frequently, indirectly decreasing those existing problems. Another aspect worth mentioning when it comes to reducing the number of cars and motorbikes is about environment. transportation

Therefore

publicly used should be prioritized. Taking all points into account, spending on public services’ improvement is likely to solve a wide abundance of problems existing, rather than paying for the development of motorways and roads. The writer,
