The maps below show the centre of a small town called lslip as it is now, and plans for its development. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The maps illustrate Islip's existing

town

centre

and the plan for the development of the

town

centre

. It is readily apparent that Islip only has a single main

road

across its'

town

centre

horizontally, which is connected to shops and housing.

Besides

that, there are

also

roads to a school and a park in the south of the

town

centre

.

Furthermore

, based on the plan of development, it is known that the city is planning to expand their

road

connection by making a new route and adjusting the existing main

road

to a pedestrian. The

road

expansion will be done by building a new

road

on the north of the

town

centre

and

also

connecting the route which accessed the school and the park.

This

initiative leads to more infrastructure building as it provides more space in the

town

centre

to build a shopping

centre

and new housing.

Therefore

, transportation infrastructure will be built,

for instance

, a bus station and car park, which can be accessed from the northern

road

.
