The Effectiveness of Free 24/7 Public Transport in Solving Traffic Congestion
Traffic congestion is a pressing issue that plagues many urban areas around the world. While providing free public transport 24 hours a day, seven days a week can be a potential solution, it may not be the ultimate fix for this complex problem. To effectively ease traffic congestion, governments should consider a multi-faceted approach. Implementing measures such as improving infrastructure, promoting carpooling and ridesharing, creating designated lanes for public transport, and investing in smart traffic management systems are all viable solutions that can work in tandem with free public transport to alleviate traffic congestion. By adopting a comprehensive strategy, governments can address the root causes of traffic congestion and create sustainable, long-term solutions for urban mobility.
