Some people think that in order to deal with the problem of congestion in cities, privately owned vehicles should be banned in city centers, while others consider this to be an unrealistic solution. Discuss both sides and give your opinion.

There exist a multitude of initiatives which can be undertaken to improve the

traffic

jams caused by cars, ranging from improving the public transit network to making bus tickets more affordable. Some individuals contend that restricting personal-use

vehicles

in city centres will be a beneficial solution to solve the congestion crisis,

while

others argue it will be hard to achieve in reality.

To begin

with, banning the use of private

vehicles

in city centres would reduce the number of four-wheelers on the road, which are majorly responsible for choked roads. In Gdansk, Poland,

for instance

, private

vehicles

are not allowed to operate in the Old Town, resulting in a complete absence of

traffic

problems.

This

can be implemented with stringent government regulations with hefty fines.

On the other hand

, is restricting car usage the most effective way to decrease congestion? Perhaps, these rules will encourage drivers to take other routes, which will just deviate the cars,

instead

of addressing the root problem. So the implementation of these strict policies is not a realistic way to achieve accessible roads. Another effective remedy is improving the public transportation infrastructure, by increasing its connectivity and accessibility

This

would lead to people preferring to commute via the subway system, which can be witnessed in Tokyo and Singapore.

the restriction of private

in the long term.
