The traffic congestion in Abu Dhabi

Around the world the transportation systems are the main topic that the governments take care of when they start to develop the country but sometimes there are some problems which disturb the development procedure and in Abu Dhabi the traffic congestion and parking problems are one of the main problems that the city is facing. In this essay I will discuss the problem and suggest some solutions for it.
In Abu Dhabi the road systems were built around 1989 and since then many adjustments happened but the old engineers were not aware of the big economic improvement that was going on in Abu Dhabi. Then in the last four years the problem started to get worse rapidly because of the huge increase of population in Abu Dhabi. The structure of the island of Abu Dhabi limited the possibilities of rebuilding and that made a big challenge for the new generations to improve the roads. The main problem for redesigning the roads are the buildings and the houses in the city itself because they cannot be destroyed and the roads are already fixed. In Abu Dhabi the DOT started to recreate some new roads and they maintained some roads and that cause a huge jam problem in the city but they are planning to finish the problem by 2013.
There are many solutions for the problem but the federal government of Abu Dhabi is aiming for a permanent solution by moving the city center to the mainland which gives them open areas to start with but there must be temporary solutions which can be done in an easy way. The solution is to add more public transport which makes the peoples able to use it instead of their cars which decreases car numbers on the roads.
The problem is a general problem around the world and there are big and huge cities such as Tokyo, NY, London which are facing this problem but with some patience and hard work the problem can be solved easily.
