Many people are now spending more and more time traveling to work or school, reason and solution?

In the contemporary world, an escalating number of individuals are dedicating significant amounts of time to commuting to work or school. This essay aims to delve into the underlying reasons for this trend and propose feasible solutions.

Several factors contribute to the substantial time spent commuting to work. Firstly, the prevalence of traffic congestion significantly prolongs travel durations. Particularly in metropolitan areas characterized by dense populations and sprawling urban landscapes, the sheer volume of commuters exacerbates congestion, resulting in frequent bottlenecks and prolonged periods of standstill or slow movement. Secondly, the concentration of large national and multinational corporations in urban centers offers competitive salaries and professional working environments, attracting employees from various locations. Even individuals residing in remote areas are willing to undertake lengthy commutes to work for these esteemed companies.

Nevertheless, several practical solutions could alleviate the commuting challenges mentioned above. Enhancing transport infrastructure represents a viable strategy to mitigate traffic congestion. Implementing rapid transit systems would facilitate swift and uninterrupted transportation, thereby significantly reducing travel times compared to conventional modes of transportation. Additionally, decentralizing urbanization by developing suburban areas could attract major companies to establish offices there. This decentralization would alleviate the overwhelmed mass movement of people to the city. For instance, in Korea, the government has recently invested a substantial amount of money in expanding railway networks, aiming to help residents in satellite cities commute more conveniently to city centers like Seoul.

In conclusion, the commuting issue has been caused by several factors; however, it could be curtailed by the proposed solutions.
