Vehicle exhaust emissions are a common source of air pollution and are primarily caused by:

Old o r poorly maintained vehicles: Higher emissions due to incomplete combustion.

Traffic congestion in and around the complex: Leads to idling engines, increasing smoke and particulate matter.

Two-stroke motorcycles o r diesel vehicles: Emit higher levels of nitrogen oxides NOx and particulate matter PM.

Solutions/Preventive Measures:

Encourage residents to maintain vehicles regularly and comply with emission standards.

Promote carpooling, electric vehicles, o r alternative transport options to reduce the number of vehicles.

Ensure parking and traffic flow in the complex minimize idling time.
