Public markets located in the center of a town often create traffic jams, especially during peak hours. The LGU must ensure that the facility will not create a congestion problem.
The LGU must properly plan the locality's transportation and infrastructure needs to ensure that the increased demands on such services are met. Zoning plans and corresponding ordinances must be reviewed and updated in the light of new developments in the locality.
Good traffic management and enforcement should alleviate problems of traffic congestion. A system of one-way streets, designated waiting areas, and loading/unloading stops for jeepneys and tricycles are some of the ways of accomplishing this goal.
