Highways or public transportation?
In this modern society, governments always confront the dilemma whether to
spend more money on improving roads and highways or on to improve
public transportation. This problem is a much-debated one in that it affects
everybody in his or her daily life. Personally speaking, I would be one of those
who argue that governments should spend more money on improving public
transportation.
Though it is quite rational for average people to choose roads and highways
because of the obvious reason that a better road condition could suspend more
vehicles and accelerate the speed of them. A close scrutiny of the potential
benefits of choosing roads and highways would reveal how flimsy it is to stick
to the propensity. A better road condition would bring with it more vehicles,
thus a much more crowded traffic. Have you ever been caught in a traffic jam?
Then how could just spending more money on improving roads and highways
do?
Besides, putting the discussion in a wider context, a further reason why I
advocate the later lies in the fact that improvement of road condition would
stimulate more people to use cars and hence more energy would be used and
more pollution would be exposed. This would be the last thing that everyone
would like to see. But if we choose to improve public transportation, a quite
different result could be. This can be demonstrated by the undeniable fact of
cities in western countries .They greatly improved the bus network and reduced the parking
places since several years ago. Now more and more people shift from cars to
buses and other public transportation, and an azure sky can be highly savored
again.
Finally, frankly speaking, there is also a more practical reason why I choose to
improve public transportations. Public transportation encourages a sense of
community. People who travel to work together all the time get to know each
other better while cars isolate us from neighbors. An improvement in public
transportation would make it fit more people's schedules and more people
would choose to take public transportation to enjoy communicating with each
other.
When taking into account all these merits and drawbacks I have numerated, we
may safely arrive at the conclusion that we should put more money and
concerns more about public transportation. We would experience more
convenience when traveling as well as an appreciable nature environment.
