Question

what measure are to be taken to reduce traffic congestion on roads at present

Answer 1

Traffic congestion is gradually increasing and is the reason for most road accidents. It is increasing at an alarming rate as the population increases.

Steps to reduce:

• The narrow roads can be widened to ensure more vehicles can use the road at the same time.
• The traffic rules should be strict.
• Provision of new routes.
• The usage of public transportation instead of using personal vehicles.
• Increasing and improving the modes of public transportation will attract the people more for cheaper rides.
• Reducing the import and manufacture of automobiles.

Answer 2

There are several ways like installing CCTV high definition cameras and recorders to monitor events and accidents.

Apart from this, there should be separate roads for pedestrians, cycles and for other vehicles.

Enforcing strict traffic laws and inducing the system of fine might also help.

At the same time, optimizing traffic light management is also another good option.
