Buenas tardes estimada tutora y compañeros,

a continuación les comparto el desarrollo de la actividad # 3. Adjunto archivo con el

texto y sus imágenes.

Paragraph 1. Introduction

When I was younger I could move faster in the city, the weather was better, now we
must drive slowly because there are many traffic jams.

In the present work I will propose an idea of future mobility, which can be a solution
to this situation.

Paragraph 2 public transport

The City of Barranquilla will have a public subway train service.

It is necessary to make the investment because the City continues to grow and
transportation is not enough, we are about to collapse.
This system of ferreous transport, must be an effective and economic for the
citizenship, it can be a good option to improve the living conditions of the
population.

Paragraph 3. Health services.

Health services will improve with the entry of this mobility system.

I do not agree with the fact that many ambulances can not reach the clinic in time
for traffic, it will be an efficient project for all, it will not be successful if we do not
contribute ideas as young citizens.

Paragraph 4 Economy

We may have to pay an additional fee, but it will be necessary to improve the
mobility and economy of young people, their access will be more comfortable, we
must not forget that we must think of a stable future for all of us.

Cordialmente,

Rosana Carreño
