Essay topics:

In some cities, the government has tried to reduce traffic by a congestion tax during rush hours. Is this positive or negative?

The transportation system of any nation is an indicator of its progress. With the increasing number of vehicles on the roads, the traffic problems have also increased. In certain cities, these traffic-related problems, like congestion, are addressed by implementing taxes and other traffic rules strictly_ I think such taxes have more benefits than disadvantages.
The first major advantage of imposing trafficrules and taxes is that more and more people are discouraged form using their private vehicles. It has been noticed in cities where the road taxes are high, most of the people prefer using the public transport, thus leading to less congestion on the roads_ For example, in London, when the congestion tax was implemented, it reduced the traffic in the central parts of the city by around 15%. People start looking at other options of transport, like car pooling, walking short distances and using the public transport more often. The added advantage is the reduced pollution, which has also become the need of the hour. Moreover, the government can use the money collected from such taxes and use it for improving the public transport infrastructure. Government can invest in building new transport systems, like the metros and the subways, building more freeways, widening the existing roads, etc. For instance, in New Delhi, many people now prefer to travel by Metros rather than their private vehicles because of the comforts and the quality. The government has constantly maintained and improved the quality of this system over the years and more and more routes have been added. This has been a major factor in reducing the use of private vehicles. Some people argue that there are already very high charges for buying a private vehicle, startling from getting it registered, paying road taxes and then further maintenance, when needed. They feel that such rules are inequitable and are not the answer to the congestion issues. Yet, we pay for all the other resources, like water, electricity, etc. according to their use. So, I believe that even for traffic there should be use-based charges, as it is also a service. To sum up, the pros of implementing more road and traffic related taxes are definitely more than the cons_ These benefitboth the individuals and the nation.
