Task 1: Supermarket Plan The map below is of the town of Garlsdon. A new supermarket (S) is planned for the town. The map shows two possible sites for the supermarket.

The given map illustrates Garlsdon, a city of 65000 inhabitants where a new shopping centre is about to be built.

Therefore

, there has been a heated debate about whether it should be located in the town heart or in the countryside.

Overall

, the town is crossed by a railway that passes near the two locations proposed for the supermarket and it is divided into three areas.

Firstly

, there is the no traffic zone in the middle, where the first suggested location for the market is.

Secondly

, there is a larger area that surrounds the core area, which is divided into three secondary sectors, two small ones are deputed to housing and the third is where the industries take place.

Lastly

, there is the countryside, here, specifically in the top left corner, there is the second location for the mall. In conclusion, the metropolis is located 25km from Cransdon, 16km away from Bransdon, respectively south-east and south-west from Garlsdon.

However

, going north-west for 12km there is Hindon, another city with a population of 10000. All these cities are connected with a system of main roads.
