As the rate of motorization increase, air quality may further deteriorate. The following table shows the contribution of vehicles to air pollution. Political changes in the region are expected to increase the traffic volume in the district. Higher usage of buses, taxis, trucks and rental vehicles will contribute to higher emission of gases into the atmosphere, and will demand new programs in traffic management and control to reduce congestion and emission of poisonous gases. Fixed sources of air pollution are primarily from industries, such as quarries and stone cutting facilities, that release large quantities of particulate matter and dust into the atmosphere.
Most industries lack necessary air filtration systems for collection of dust and particulate.
Most building materials, namely sand, and both coarse and fine aggregates, are dumped and left uncovered on the road sides. These materials are often left at the construction site for extended periods of time and contribute to the particulate matter carried in the atmosphere. Strict construction laws and regulations should be established which limit the amount of particulate matter. Obtaining a building permit should be made conditional upon the adherence to these regulations. The planting of trees in front of buildings should be encouraged as it will moderate the atmosphere and filter pollutants.
