There is a discussion about if the goverment should invest more in public transportation in orden to reduce traffic congestion in cities, on one hand, some people belive is important, and in the other hand, others think that individuals should take more responsibility for their own travel choices.
Investing more in public transportation is a way to reduce traffic congestion in cities, when people start using less their vehicules and start using more the public transport, the traffic congestion decreases all over the city, in addition to that, the air quality of the cities becomes better, therefore, the quality of living also increases. Despite of so many beneffits of that, public transportation has to be efficient, in order to people to feel happy and agree to use less their vehicules.
On the other hand, some think that individuals should take more responsibility for their own travel choices, in fact, people have the freedom of choose how to transport themselfs, however, the city is a type of community way of living and everything that we do, affect the others.
In my point of view, investing more in public transportation is a correct way to reduce traffic congestion in cities, additional to that, the air quality becomes better if there are less vehicules driving at the same time, not only that, the quality of living rises and people becomes happier.
In summary, good public transport is importat for cities, if it is efficient many people will prefer to use it for sure. However, there are always gonna be people that prefer to use their own transports.
