3. The rising levels of congesition and air pollution found in most of the world’s cities can be attributed directly to the rapidly increasing number of private cars in use. In order to reverse this decline in the quality of life in cities, attempts must be made to encourage people to use their cars less and public transport more. Discuss possible ways to encourage the use of public transport.
There is no denying the fact that the traffic congestion and air pollution are extremely serious problems to most cities, which should be taken strong measures to deal with by the government. But on account of the rapid development of the economy, there is(is or are?) growing number of private cars, and these problems tend to be much worsen. In my opinion, the proper solution is to encourage the use of public transport.
The first way to encourage the use of public transport is to make the use of private cars more inconvenient in city. It is obvious that parking fees and limit area for parking conduce to this measure. Provided that parking cost highly and there is no place to park, a large number of people will like to choose the buses or trains. In addition, the tolls of motorways and elevated road, which are beneficial to decrease the number of private cars, have been use in many cities.
Furthermore, the reason that so many people would not like to use the public transport is its dirty and always crowded with a large number of passengers. The better way to encourage people use it is to change the condition of the public transport. For instance, we can make the bus more comfortable and convenient. Also we can increase the number of times of the buses every day in order to make people take buses on whatever time they want. Thus, it will attract more passengers.
To summarize, from my point of view, if less people use the private cars, not only more efficient the public transport will be, but also the air pollution will decrease. So we ought to take into account the public transport and encourage increasingly people to use it.
