traffic in Abu Dhabi

Nowadays, many large cities likes Abu Dhabi suffer from traffic congestion and there are many causes and solutions, which I am going to write about.
The first problem that causes traffic is the growing population, for example the numbers of cars per house hold. Another problem is economic development, for example export of oil. A further problem is construction, for example built new large builds without parking which causes heavy traffic. One more problem is many young drivers cause accidents; why ? Because they don’t have good driving education. Another problem is concentration of firms and colleges in one area; for example Khalife Street has several firms such as Al Salam hospital, National Bank of Abu Dhabi and the University of the Emirates. Finally, nowadays a lot of large buildings are built without parking, for example Hamden Street's buildings and Khalifa Street's buildings.
One solution to reduce the traffic congestion is to improve the existing system, for example skyline. Another solution is to the limit number of cars per house hold. A further solution is introducing staggered hours, for example not all people should start working at 8.0' clock. Another solution is to educate drivr and have a stiffer test. Another solution is paid parking; for example build underground parking and Mwagaf paid parking. Also there is another solution, relocation firms, for example the new women's college in Khalife city A and Yas city recreational. Another solution is people should use the public transport such as taxics and buses. Finally, people should got more fines and black points for offences.
As we have seen, these are several solution, but the three most viable solutions are relocation the concentration of firms, staggered hours and paid parking.
