Abstract: Urban traffic congestion is a major challenge for modern cities, impacting economic productivity, the environment, and quality of life. This work explores the causes, patterns, and consequences of traffic in metropolitan areas, with a focus on London as a case study. It examines potential remedies such as improved urban planning, public transportation, and policy interventions to reduce congestion. By synthesizing insights from various sources, the study offers a comprehensive framework for understanding urban traffic issues and proposes practical solutions to improve mobility and livability in large cities.
