 Traffic jams tend to cause a number of problems. Apart from having an impact on people’s behaviour large volumes of traffic harm the environment and consequently people’s health. Traffic congestion occurs at rush hours. This period is characterized daily by the large volumes of commuters being channeled through Floriana into Valletta; these two being the main administrative centres of the Island.
The way forward is to work in order to achieve a better living environment. This can be done by reducing the amount of traffic from our streets and introduce alternative modes of transport. Employers can contribute to diminishing transport related problems by implementing a Green Travel Plan system for their employees and lead by example.
