You use public transport and have been facing issues. Write a letter to the public transport authorities. In your letter include: Why public transport is important to you What problem you face Suggest what can be done to improve public transport
Dear Sir,
I am writing
this
letter to draw your attention towards public transportation, which may cause concern for the public.
Public transport has served many benefits for society for many years. It is convenient for me and other commuters to travel. Apart from
this
, I feel safer on the bus than in my car at night. Therefore
, public transportation means allows me to travel anywhere without being restricted.
However
, other passengers have been facing many issues for many months. Firstly
, drivers drive buses at a high speed, which may cause serious mishappening. Although
we requested the driver to control speed, they ignored us. Secondly
, buses are crowded during rush hours, which makes them uncomfortable. Thirdly
, buses are not taking the link route nowadays. Therefore
, people take taxis to reach their destinations, which is expensive.
I believe there should be more coaches during rush hours and at night to mitigate the problem of congestion. Additionally
, drivers must have strict punishment for rough driving. Lastly
, minibuses need to be introduced for the link route to make public transport more accessible for people.
I hope you will work on the improvement.
thank you for hearing me out.
Regards,
