Note #15. A transport strategy. My town is not one of the biggest cities in the country though it’s a main town of the region. Also it’s connecting point between two countries because it’s located next to the country border. Therefore there are a lot of vehicles on the roads although 250 000 people live here and only half of them have a car. Sometimes you can stuck in a traffic jam for 20 minutes and it’s a lot of time for citizens because without congestion you can get from one side to another within these 20 minutes. If there was lack of transport strategy last years, this year road conditions have been changed. For example lately many parking places have been placed along the roads and in the yards of living buildings. This action has helped to make traffic flow free. Also it has been facilitated by integration “smart” crossings and additional separated turnings there. The Government tries to reduce amount of accident black spots by setting traffic lights and speed limit signs. I heard about some traffic-calming measures but they’ve not been applied yet. Of course, there are still a lot of things to do. Adding cycle lanes, decreasing pollution, fighting with bribery in the system of obtaining driver's licenses, prohibition of loud music and motorcycle driving in residential areas after 10 pm, etc. If I had a power, I would looked at these problems first.
