Traffic congestion is a growing issue in urban areas, stemming from various causes such as old, narrow streets, increased car ownership, and delivery lorries. The effects include noise pollution, air pollution, and a rise in accidents, causing significant time wastage for commuters. However, potential solutions exist, including Park and Ride schemes, more trains, pedestrianisation efforts, bus lanes, and improved infrastructure like bridges and road repairs. Addressing these factors holistically is essential for alleviating traffic congestion in our cities.
