The local improvement I want to speak about is improving the transportation in my local area. It should be done by increasing the number of buses and implementing a metro and effective metro system. People in my local area suffer from the lack of buses. It’s too hard to catch a bus in my area. The waiting could be more than one hour in the rain or in the heat. So that makes people be late for their jobs or their destinations. That causes traffic jam as well. People prefer to use their own cars than waiting for a bus. That will increase the number of cars on the streets and end up with a traffic jam problem. I think that these problems can be fixed by enhancing the transportation system in general. Specifically, by improving the number of buses. It’s the number one transportation method people rely on. This will cause or make the number of individuals waiting on stations fewer. In addition, it will attract more tourists because they won’t come if they can’t travel through the city and see all the attractions. It will enhance the economic situation when it will attract more tourists.

The local improvement I want to speak about is improving transportation in my local area. It should be done by increasing the number of buses and implementing an effective metro system. People in my local area suffer from the lack of buses. It's too hard to catch a bus in my area. The waiting time can be more than one hour in the rain or in the heat. This makes people late for their jobs or their destinations, which causes traffic jams as well. People prefer to use their own cars rather than wait for a bus. This increases the number of cars on the streets and leads to traffic congestion. I think these problems can be fixed by enhancing the transportation system in general, specifically by improving the number of buses. It's the primary transportation method people rely on. This will reduce the number of individuals waiting at stations. In addition, it will attract more tourists because they won't come if they can't travel through the city and see all the attractions. It will enhance the economic situation by attracting more tourists.
