The maps show how the layout of a science park has changed from 2008 to the present day.
Overall, the park has been developed with several new facilities such as a university hub, a research and development area, and a station, while some green areas have been replaced by buildings and infrastructure.
In 2008, the park mainly consisted of a few buildings and large areas of grassland. There were offices and a reception in the north-east, business units in the west, an IT centre in the south-west, and a cyber security centre in the south-east. A car park was located in the centre, surrounded by some trees and open land.
Today, the layout has changed significantly. The grassland in the northwest has been replaced by a research and development building. The IT centre has been transformed into an innovation centre, and a new station has been built just south of it, connected by a railway line. A university hub has also been added in the middle, linking the research, business, and office areas. Moreover, new cycle paths and a bus stop have been introduced to improve transport access.
In summary, the science park has become more modern and convenient, with more buildings and transport facilities replacing the natural areas seen in 2008.
