Urban traffic is becoming more and more problematic in China as people now have the purchasing power to buy automobiles. Thousands of vehicles are added to the streets of Beijing alone each month. It has worsened as China develops and private ownership of vehicles becomes the dream of every family. This increase in vehicles is creating a large problem as traffic jams increase, causing in many cases traffic on roads to come to a standstill . This will influence the quality of life for many urban dwellers. The sign of their prosperity has now become a burden. The answer to these traffic problems could come in many ways. The coordination and diversification of public transport, such as buses and rail, could give an option so that fewer people would purchase their own automobiles. It should be obvious that detailed traffic planning is needed, as these solutions may in many respects add to the traffic congestion. Buses, for example, cause problems with their large size. Also, the fact is that they repeatedly s during their routes. Subways and light rails are limited because their stations cannot cover every part of a city. The facilities that manage these goals need to be provided and more money should be allocated to fix these urban problems.
