In major cities around the world, traffic congestion has become a serious problem. How can this problem be tackled? Give reasons and examples from your own experience.

There is no denying that the

problem

of

traffic

congestion

is getting bigger in major

cities

which reflects another social

problem

in our generation. Many

people

are suffering from

traffic

congestion

such

as bus drivers, taxi drivers and car owners these days.

However

, I reckon that we can overcome these obstacles

together with

a few ideas. What matters most is reducing the amount of population of major

cities

. Fundamentally,

traffic

jams can stem from the

congestion

of the population in a specific city.

This

is a phenomenon that appears in large

cities

these days.

According to

a survey, the number of

people

and registered

cars

has increased at the same time in major

cities

gradually.

In addition

, some eminent scholars say

this

problem

is unstoppable in the long-term period.

However

, in my perspective, there are solutions to the

problem

of

traffic

congestion

in major

cities

. The public can be willing to use

bicycles

more than

cars

if the

government

invests in bicycle roads which Berlin has been doing. When I was living in Berlin for 2 years ago,

although

Berlin is a big city, the public rode

bicycles

to commute because the

government

of Germany has been investing in making bicycle roads well.

Therefore

, the public can avoid

traffic

congestion

to commute.

Moreover

, many

people

are likely to ride

bicycles

more than

cars

, if the

government

supports financial things of

people

using

bicycles

instead

of

cars

.

For example

, cutting national taxes by 3% for bicycle users. The biggest weakness of regular

people

is financial things. In conclusion, for the reasons mentioned above, I personally believe that it is possible to overcome the issue of

traffic

congestion

if the

government

would help actively.
