Thesis Statement
Public
transport
provide
numerous benefits
to local people
for
move
here and there in the daily likfestyle
. It definitely has
a lot of benefits
such as less costly and less atmospheric emissions. Even after its benefits
, most people
use private
vehicles
more conveniently. There are lots of benefits
of
using public
transport
which are given below in the paragraphs.As mentioned above,
use
of public
transport
helps
in cost reduction as public
transport
is cheaper as compared to the private
vehicles
. people
can easily book for or get into buses
, trains and metro to go here and there.Alos, the use of
public
transport
instead of private
ones
helps
in reduction
of harmful chemicals and gases like carbons
released into the atmosphere. moreover
, less use of private
transport
means less vehicle
on road
and thus less traffic on the roads.After so many
benefits
, people
prefer using their own vehicles
to get to and from their work because it is more convenient as they do not need to go to the bus
stops or stations to catch that. Also, public
transport
services are not that much regular in each and every area and after one bus
passes, it takes longer to catch another one and thus chances of getting late for work increase.As a conclusion, the increase in
public
services along with the patience in
people
to catch one bus
after the other can help
protect the environment and extra wastage of money on the private
vehicles
. Also, it helps
in the overall stability of the society.
