World Public Transport Day:  Why is it celebrated?

Sustainability: Public transport, such as buses, trains, and subways, is often more environmentally friendly than individual car use, contributing to reduced carbon emissions and improved air quality

Traffic Reduction: Increased use of public transportation can help alleviate traffic congestion in urban areas, leading to smoother traffic flow and reduced travel times

Cost-Effective: Public transport can be more cost-effective for individuals compared to owning and maintaining a private vehicle, making it a financially viable option for many people.

Energy Efficiency: Public transportation systems are generally more energy-efficient per passenger mile than private vehicles, contributing to overall energy conservation

Accessibility: Public transport makes transportation accessible to a broader segment of the population, including those who cannot afford private vehicles or those with mobility challenges

Community Connectivity: Public transport networks help connect different parts of a city or region, fostering community interaction and economic development

Reduced Parking Demand: Wide adoption of public transport reduces the demand for parking spaces, freeing up valuable urban real estate for other purposes
