TEST 5 - ESSAY

From going to work, to school, to the gym and to the supermarket frequent transportation
is inherent in each citizen’s life. Actually, so frequently do they transport, that the incidence
of tailbacks, traffic congestions and car accidents is exceptionally high especially at the core
of cities. Either way there are mainly two ways of combatting this problem which may both
as well be contemplated.
Firstly, one catalyst for traffic congestions is establishing a good public transportation
system. It stands to reason that since they have the capacity transport many passengers at a
time more buses and trains would successfully reduce the volume of traffic in major cities
and thus frustration at city centers. in addition to this, air pollution would also be on the
decline. When this kind of pollution is accountable for 34% of strokes 27% of heart disease
and 36% of loss of lung disease [ as a WHO survey indicates] it is imperative we do
everything within out power in order to reduce carbon emissions. Indeed, widely selecting
and enhancing public modes of transport has proved to be much more ecological than
individual car usage.
Secondly, the latter way which can be opted for is adequately maintaining road
infrastructure. It is anyways often alleged that inefficient circulatory systems or bad roads
account for a huge proportion of traffic jams. Apart from this, preserving roads in good
condition could exceptionally decrease road accidents. Actually, evidence indicates that
insufficiently preserving roads [examples of which are missing traffic lights to hidden traffic
signs] is answerable to 50% of car crashes. Hence, good roads could importantly combat car
accidents and offer levels of reliability for any driver who longs for getting around more
safely.
In a nutshell, it is beyond a shadow of a doubt that both good public transportation and
road maintenance are equally essential to exist in any metropolis for the best of its citizens,
be it for traffic, health or safety reasons. Therefore, either of them should be toiled to exist
in each city and if this is regarded as not fiscally possible, maybe cities should reconsider and
think about tightening their belts on other, perhaps more unnecessary, drains of resources,
instead of these two.
