Suggestions on easing traffic congestion

Written by T. KING
IN order to help ease the traffic congestion, the long number of seconds on traffic lights should be reduced to forty seconds and you will see a major flow of traffic.One way streets are good too in helping to ease traffic congestion.

Remove those illegal vendors who vend on roadways and sidewalks period.
Charge drivers and fine and/or jail them severely when they sit in their vehicles doing their shopping from those vendors on the sidewalks.
In Georgetown and surrounding areas the streets are really small, so make all intersections a four-way stop.
Put up the red stop signs where every motorist will see it.
Paint the intersections and mark stop ahead where every motorist can see it clearly.
These will not only help move traffic but will reduce deaths and injuries.
I am happy to read a government minister finally waking up to cold hard facts about drivers’ licencec being sold.
Mr. Rohee said: “It was also identified that some persons driving on the roads have not attended driving classes both theoretical and practical ones, but have acquired their licences. If these persons are caught breaching the law, they will be dealt with by the Guyana Police Force.
It’s not a matter of if, but when they are caught.
Mr. Rohee, you have to find those that are in authority and charge them and try them in a court of law and once found guilty of selling drivers’ licences must be jailed for life to set the example for all others.
Those that sell drivers’ licences are fully responsible for tremendous deaths and injuries to many innocent Guyanese who lost their lives while walking the streets of Guyana.
