The image provides a map of the town of Canterbury, detailing two possible sites for a new school, S1 and S2. The town's layout includes a central Town Centre (a no traffic zone), surrounded by a Housing area, which is then enclosed by Countryside. A University is located in the northern part of the housing area. Site S1 is located in the countryside in the northeast. Site S2 is situated within the housing area, south of the town centre. Main roads are shown connecting Canterbury to two nearby towns: one road extends 7km southwest to Chartham (Population: 4,500), and another road extends 5km northeast to Sturry (Population: 7,000).
Given the complexity of the image, the above description may not be entirely accurate.

The map illustrates the two potential destinations for a new school in the town of Canterbury.

Overall, although both sites are close to the main roads, site 2 is located in the town centre, which prohibits vehicles, while site 1 is situated in the countryside to the east of the town.

The town of Canterbury has a town centre in the middle, surrounded by a housing area, and the main roads connecting the southwest and the northeast. The outermost layer of the town is the countryside, and there is a university located in the north, between the housing area and the countryside.

If the first site is chosen, the school will be built in the countryside in the northeast corner of the town, right next to the residential area. This location is also in close proximity to the main roads leading to Sturry, which is 5 km away and has a population of 7000 people.

Alternatively, the school can be constructed in the south of the town centre which allows no traffic inside. As opposed to site 1, this site is nearer to the Chartham town, which is 7 km away and has 4500 residents.
