The maps allow us to examine the development plan of Islip town. Though right now the centre is relatively small and consists mostly of housing areas and shops around the main road, it is planned to expand the area and make it more comfortable for the residents.
Perhaps the most noticeable changes are those relating to transportation.
For instance
, the main thoroughfare will transform into a pedestrian zone, Linking Words
whereas
a dual carriageway will encircle the downtown area, supplanting the countryside. Linking Words
Moreover
, a bus station will be built in the northwest, and a car park will be constructed north of the line of shops, which is planned to remain untouched. The rest of the shops will be merged to form one big mall west of the new housing area. Meanwhile, the local park in the South-East will be decreased in size to make way for an expanded accommodation zone. Though the neighbourhoods south of the beltway will stay unchanged, the school near it will be enlarged.Linking Words
