Abstract: This article explores the causes and potential solutions for traffic congestion in Lusaka Central Business District (LCBD). It identifies increased vehicle volume and population growth as key contributors to the issue. Proposed interventions include restricting certain vehicle types to specific roads, implementing smart traffic light systems, establishing a ticketing office, and developing local shopping malls to reduce unnecessary trips to the CBD. These findings are expected to inform policymakers and stakeholders, leading to sustainable traffic management solutions for Lusaka and beyond.
