Hello Hive Learners Community! Welcome to my blog. Transportation is a big source of communication between cities in a country. For a smooth transport system, we need smooth roads so that we should be able to save our vehicles from either traffic deadlocks or traffic accidents. Regarding transportation, there is also a vital need for fuel. Whether there is an issue with the roads or with the fuel, its smooth supply will be disturbed. We need a delicate balance between roads and traffic; otherwise, communication between cities is impossible.
Regular Traffic Deadlocks
I belong to one of the best Pakistani Historical City, Lahore where traffic issues are very common. In some places, there are roads with many jumps. When you are traveling either in public or using personal transport, your whole body starts toasting during your journey. There are roads with Potholes and Cracks. When you are driving, the tire of your vehicle punctures and the pare malfunctions.
Moreover, there are roads where water from the drainage system is the source of road pollution. Yes, when you take a ride on these roads, not only do your clothes become dirty, but also you have to cover your nose due to the putrid smell. Additionally, there are ongoing road projects that are big headache for transportation in Lahore. Everyday there happened thousands of accidents and many lives are lost on these roads due to poor supply of transportation.
To increase our problem, our government is also making its participation. Fuel prices are going closer to the sky. The current fuel prices in Pakistan is 1 Liger Petrol = 1$. Yes, dollar price is nearly equal to one litre of petrol. Poor economic government policies are also resulting into transportation problems. More passengers and less public transport are also part of our daily headache.
I have witnessed a life threatening event recently when I was driving my car towards my Home. There happened a clash between a bike and a Rickshaw on a road having jumps and cracks. The person on the bike after striking with Rickshaw had fallen on the road while one van crashed his both legs. There was a stream of blood on the road. Due to this accident, smooth supply of traffic was broken. Even the Ambulance was unable to save the life of pour soul and he died before he got admit into the Hospital.
For Multi traffic Problems, One single solution
Lahore is hub with transportation problems. If we want to overcome these problems then we should emphasize our government for making new routes with new roads. The renovation for 12th Century roads is not a solution. We should make specific routes for specific vehicles. Bikes, vans, tractors and Heavy Vehicles can't pass smoothly on a single road. We should make flyovers everywhere. We should make an alternative traffic planing if any deadlocks is seemed. We need better road management and better roads. If Communication gap between different cities is bridged then we can decrease our daily economic loss. I hope, our government will take significant steps for the traffic issues I raised here. We need to raise our voice for rights if we want that a chain of accidents will be broken soon.
