In order to reduce the traffic congestion, air pollution and sound pollution the transport ministry headed by Minister Pavthra Wanniarchchi had a special discussion recently. The motive of this discussion is to introduce a model to reduce traffic congestion in Colombo city by establishing parking locations in critically congested areas. In order to fulfil this objective based on identifying critically congested roads by traffic measurements and introducing cuts as parking locations to control the vehicle flow in to the city. This concept can be initiated by motivating people to use parking locations to park their private vehicles and use public transportation more conveniently and comfortably.
