The map illustrates the two possible new school locations in the city of Canterbury.
Overall
,
it is clear that
S2 is located in the centre of town,
whereas
S1 is close to the countryside.
To begin
, we can notice that planned S2 is located in the town centre, which has no traffic zone.
By contrast
, S1 is planned close to the Sturry area, in which live 7000 citizens, and it is 5 km from the main town to
this
region. Meanwhile, it is noticeable that individuals in the city of Canterbury, where S2 is planned, should go by main roads of approximately 7km to reach Chartham, which has a population of 4500 people.
Moreover
, we can see that students who study both at S2 and S1 schools will have the opportunity to go to the University area, which is situated on the north side of
this
map and has the same distance to both schools.
