Some people might say that making parks and buiding libraries are necesarities in order to provide comfortable environments for citizens. However, in my opinion, I firmly believe that the increase of public transportation should be a priority because of the following two subsequent reasons such as pratical aspects and creating jobs. To begin with, the increment of public transportation has a significant influence on residents and
environments. To be specific, the introduction of new public transportation, more buses and subways not only make inhabitants commute conveniently and comfortably, but also protect the environment by using public trasportation. For example, in Daejeon, there was a considerable change in public transportation. The district office introduced new systems such as tram on the streets and more operations of buses. It required a huge amount of money to adapt the public system by investing infrastructures. The result showed that most of the people in the city were content with the new public system and reduced using their own cars while commuting and traveling around the whole citiy. In addition, the Ministry of Environment announced the rate of air pollution in Daejeon smoothly went down from 65% to 50% thanks to facilitating the use of the increase of public transportations On top of that, increasing public transporation can make more jobs in cities. In general, in order to enlarge public transportation, cities need to build more stations and recruiting more employees to operate changed public transportation. According to the research conducted by Korea University, the effects of the increment of public transportation indicated that the change can create at least 1,000 jobs and boost related industries such as public transportation technologies, car and train companies. There is no doubt It has higher possiblility to activate a myriad of indutries in cities.
To sum up, taking the benefits of increasing public transportation into consideration, I strongly believe that the most important thing to do is to increase public transportation. In this regard, its affirmative impact far outweighs other choices.
