× I live in Brampton, so the roads are a lot of busy in day as well as night because there are a lot, a lot of public in on road like by car or by foot.
✓ I live in Brampton, so the roads are very busy during the day as well as at night because there are a lot of people on the road, either by car or on foot.
The phrase 'a lot of busy' is incorrect because 'busy' is an adjective and cannot be quantified by 'a lot of'. Instead, 'very busy' is appropriate. Also, 'a lot, a lot of public in on road' is incorrect; 'a lot of people on the road' is the correct expression. Prepositions 'during the day' and 'at night' are more natural than 'in day' and 'in night'.
× I live in Brampton, so the roads are a lot of busy in day as well as night because there are a lot, a lot of public in on road like by car or by foot.
✓ I live in Brampton, so the roads are very busy during the day as well as at night because there are a lot of people on the road, either by car or on foot.
The prepositions 'in day' and 'in night' are incorrect; the correct prepositions are 'during the day' and 'at night'. Also, 'in on road' is incorrect; it should be 'on the road'.
× So that's why Rd. are very busy.
✓ So that's why the roads are very busy.
'Rd.' is an abbreviation for 'road' which is singular, but the context refers to multiple roads, so the plural 'roads' should be used. Also, the definite article 'the' is needed before 'roads'.
× Just people cross the road in my city and I saw a lot of pupils using the crossing button on the pole.
✓ People just cross the road in my city, and I have seen a lot of pupils using the crossing button on the pole.
The sentence structure is awkward. 'Just people cross' should be 'People just cross'. Also, 'I saw' should be 'I have seen' to indicate experience up to now.
× Just press the button and when they have right to cross the road they crossed.
✓ They just press the button, and when they have the right to cross the road, they cross.
The phrase 'have right' is missing the article 'the'. Also, 'they crossed' should be 'they cross' to maintain present tense consistency.
× Just press the button and when they have right to cross the road they crossed.
✓ They just press the button, and when they have the right to cross the road, they cross.
The verb 'crossed' is past tense, but the context is habitual action, so present tense 'cross' is appropriate.
× They crossed the road in a with full rule and regulations and there are a lot of the crossing signs.
✓ They cross the road following all the rules and regulations, and there are a lot of crossing signs.
The phrase 'in a with full rule and regulations' is incorrect. It should be 'following all the rules and regulations'. Also, 'a lot of the crossing signs' should be 'a lot of crossing signs'.
× The conditions of the road in my city very well, because I live now, I am living in Kitchener, so the roads condition are very good there.
✓ The condition of the roads in my city is very good because I am now living in Kitchener, so the road conditions are very good there.
'Conditions' and 'condition' were used inconsistently. 'Condition' is singular when referring to 'the condition of the roads'. Also, 'roads condition' should be 'road conditions' to be plural and correct.
× The conditions of the road in my city very well, because I live now, I am living in Kitchener, so the roads condition are very good there.
✓ The condition of the roads in my city is very good because I am now living in Kitchener, so the road conditions are very good there.
The original sentence lacks a verb in the first clause ('very well' is an adjective phrase). Adding 'is' corrects the sentence structure.
× Uh, their national, uh, their highways and the, as well as the cities Rd. are in a good conditions with the proper, proper concrete, uh.
✓ There are national highways as well as city roads that are in good condition with proper concrete.
'Their' is a possessive pronoun incorrectly used instead of 'there are'. Also, 'cities Rd.' should be 'city roads'. 'In a good conditions' is incorrect; it should be 'in good condition'.
× No, I don't think the roads in my city need to be more improvement because there are a lot of Rd. signs and St. lights and electrical poles are already in on the road and and the roads of the my city are fully developed uh, with the new concrete and the.
✓ No, I don't think the roads in my city need more improvement because there are a lot of road signs, street lights, and electrical poles already on the road, and the roads in my city are fully developed with new concrete.
'Need to be more improvement' is incorrect; 'need more improvement' is correct. Also, 'in on the road' is incorrect preposition usage; 'on the road' is correct. 'The roads of the my city' is incorrect; 'the roads in my city' is correct.
