Below is a map of the city of Brandfield. City planners have decided to build a new shopping mall for the area, and two sites, S1 and S2 have been proposed.
Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.
The map illustrates the two possible sites for a new shopping complex in the city of Brandfield. The initial difference between two sites is that the first site is near a residential area, while the others close to an industrial region.
The first site (S1) is located to the north of the city between the residential area and the city center. There are three infrastructure features (a river, a main road and a railway) around S1, thus, these transports may provide easy access from most part of the city, if a shopping mall is built in that area.
The second site (S2) lies to the south-east end of the city and is fairly close to the downtown and the industrial part. The site is near two main roads and the railroad; however, has no residential part around the area.
There is a large Golf Course and a park in the west side of the city, but both sites are not close to the given area.
