51、cident. VIII. Writing. ( 10%)I am against the idea of banning private transport from the city centre.Banning private transport and allowing only public transport would be highly inconvenient for many people. As far as I can see, one solution would be to allow cars into the city centre on alternate d

52、ays. On the other hand, creating more car parks just outside the city centre and providing free buses, or charging cares to drive into the centre may be better solutions . Many people might choose to take public transport because it is cheaper. In that way, the city authorities could also make some extra money.To sum up, a complete ban on private traffic in the city may not be practical, however desirable it is. I am in favour of creating more car parks just outside the city centre and charging cars that go into it.
