At present, with more and more vehicles navigating on the road, city dwellers are daily confronted and plagued by traffic congestion. Some people suggest that the best way to tackle the traffic problems is to provide free transportation for 24/7 service. However, I deeply doubt the practicability of the method and believe that more measures are required to solve the problems. Admittedly, it is the convenience that the biggest advantage offered by free public transport service, especially for those employees who go to work on weekends or at midnight. As a result, more people are captivated and they choose bus and underground as their daily transportation, which drastically reduce the number of private cars running on the roads. On the other hand, it seems that a kind of waste of public service out of the rush hour, because few people would use the public transport at a late night or in the very early morning. Furthermore, a large sum of money is required to support the free public transport system, which definitely put more strains on the budget of the government. Thus, the government would certainly resort to tax revenue, which means that residents are likely to pay more taxes to the government and suffer a heavy financial burden. From my perspectives, it is essential and necessary to develop and advance the public transport system. Moreover, improvement of the city-planning can also reduce the traffic congestion. To conclude, providing free 24/7 service is not available to solve the problem.
