The maps below show a science park in 2008 and the same park today. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The pictures show the layout of a science

park

in 2008 and the changes that have taken place up until now. Taken as a whole, the

park

has gone through a number of major changes, with the most significant one being the construction of new features, which have been made possible at the expense of green spaces. It is

also

evident that the road infrastructure in the

park

's perimeter has been significantly upgraded. In 2008, the

park

was accessible from the western, eastern and northeastern sides by car. There was a car

park

in the

centre

of the science

park

for visitors, which served the purpose of a bridge between business units in the west and the cyber security building in the southeast. Other major building complexes: a round-shaped IT

centre

and offices adjoining the reception were

also

part of the science

park

. We can

also

see a railroad stretching from the west to the east in the southern part of the plan, and the remaining territory was either woodland or grassland. By now, a large number of developments have occurred in the

park

. Included in these were the construction research and development building to the left-hand side of offices, the conversion of the reception into a university hub, and the enlargement of the cyber security premises (now it has an L-shape).

Moreover

, the existing IT

centre

has been converted into an innovation

centre

,

while

the car

park

has been approximately halved in size.

Finally

, transport facilities have been improved in the area by building a railroad station, laying brand-new footpaths throughout, building a bus station in the east, and adding a separate lane for cyclists.
