Easing traffic congestion

No cakewalk

The main reason for traffic congestion is that the roadside shopkeepers have almost taken over the platforms, leaving no space for pedestrians. The pedestrians, in turn, walk on the road and cause problems for the motorists. The authorities should relocate the vendors on the platforms. Constructing wider roads and creating more parking areas are effective solutions. Also, people should avoid using mobile phones while on the move, to prevent accidents.
