Abu Dhabi has become modern and has more population than before; around 450.000 people live in the capital; now Abu Dhabi suffers from traffic in the street and tries to find possible solutions.
First of all, Abu Dhabi tries to face the traffic problems; streets have more cars and it is uncomfortable to find parking near to your house or to your work. The numbers of people are more day by day, and on the other hand people need transport. The first reason for traffic congestion is the cars; I made a study about the traffic and found for each family there were approximately three cars. It causes an imbalance in the demographics; the numbers of parking areas are few if compared to the numbers of cars. I think banks have an active role to increase these problems, by giving them loans. Or maybe the cars in the UAE are cheaper than in other countries. In addition petrol is cheaper than other countries.
The government used experienced consultants from outside the country to fix demographics and find possible solutions to face the traffic problem. After years of studies, the government put some policies to determine the number of cars for the family. That is one of the solutions to reduce the traffic. Force the drivers to pay for the parking 3DH per hour for the main streets and 2DH for back streets, to limit using the cars and reduce the numbers of cars. Another solution is expansion of the streets and building the bridges, to make it easy to move the traffic.
In conclusion, I believe government tries its best to reduce the traffic by building the bridges and expanding the streets to reduce the numbers of accidents and cars.
