The provided illustration showcases the city layout of Brandfield with proposed sites S1 and S2 for a new shopping center.
The map displays key areas in the city including a golf course, park, housing estate, city center, and industrial estate, alongside transportation routes such as a river, road, and railway. Site 1 is in the northern part while Site 2 is situated in the south-east, both in proximity to the railway line.
Site 1 is strategically placed near a road, railway, and river, offering convenient accessibility. Conversely, Site 2, located on the city’s outskirts, also has access to a road and railway line. Despite this, the central location and ample transportation links make Site 1 a more favorable choice for the new shopping mall.
Site 1 stands out due to its central position and easy access to multiple transport modes. In contrast, Site 2, despite its access to a road and railway, is somewhat isolated in comparison. Overall, the advantageous location of Site 1 close to the city center and various transport amenities presents it as the preferable option for the new shopping mall development.
