Subject: Problems of traffic jam during rush hours
Dear Sir:
I write to your good self to express my concern over the
problems of excessive traffic faced by commuters during peak hours every day.
The roads of the city have become so crowded with vehicles that long traffic
jams are everyday affair now. These long traffic jams cause so much of loss to
the nation. Millions of working hours are wasted every day because of these
traffic jams. Fuel worth millions of rupees gets wasted by vehicles stuck up in
these jams. People’s health is also under attack from the pollution caused by
these vehicles. The irritation caused by these jams also leads to many
aggressive confrontations among the commuters. Students also incur heavy loss
of studies as these jams don’t let them reach to their schools and colleges in
time.
Through the medium of your esteemed daily I appeal to the
state and central governments to look into the matter. The city is in dire need
of an advanced Metro train facility. The municipal transport department can
also commence more intra-city electrical buses. The Metro and the electrical
buses will considerably help in reducing the traffic congestion on roads. Apart
from the above mentioned measures, widening of roads and keeping the roads free
for commuters can also help in reducing the problems of commuters. Kindly give
my views enough space in your esteemed daily. Thanking you.
Yours truly,
Gibran
