Introduction / Context:
Curbside vending can impede pedestrian flow and safety, yet it provides livelihood to many. Effective urban management balances enforcement with inclusive planning. We must judge whether seeking police help to clear blockages and providing alternative vending space both follow from the problem stated.
Given Data / Assumptions:
- Footpaths are obstructed by vendors, causing congestion.
- Course I: Seek police assistance to drive vendors away.
- Course II: Provide designated space where vendors can sell without blocking footpaths.
- Assume pedestrian safety and livelihoods are both legitimate concerns.
Concept / Approach:
- Immediate relief often requires enforcement to clear right-of-way.
- Sustainable resolution requires planned vending zones/marketplaces to prevent re-encroachment and protect livelihoods.
Step-by-Step Solution:
Course I addresses the urgent obstruction and restores pedestrian movement.Course II addresses long-term needs by offering legitimate space, reducing future conflicts.Thus both actions logically follow and complement each other.
Verification / Alternative check:
Many cities implement “hawker zones” plus enforcement elsewhere, illustrating the combined approach.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
Only I / Only II: Each is incomplete; enforcement without alternatives risks recurrence, while alternatives without enforcement fail to clear current obstructions.Either / Neither: Do not reflect a balanced, practical strategy.
Common Pitfalls:
Treating the issue as purely law-and-order or purely welfare; effective solutions integrate both aspects.
Final Answer:
Both I and II follow
