(IELTS Academic – 28/10/2023)
ANSWER (8.0+):
The maps illustrate the proposed changes to an industrial zone. As can be seen in the plan, the site will be completely transformed to become residential with the factory, offices and other structures expected to be removed to allow for the construction of housing and various facilities for residents. The surrounding road system, by contrast, will remain unchanged.
Regarding the new residences, three 2-bedroom houses have been proposed along Chimney Road where the current entrance and reception are, while an apartment building with designated parking will replace the factory at the corner of Pie Walk and Swallow Street. On the other side of the site, there will exist 3 and 4-bedroom homes situated in the place of existing storage and parking areas.
Concerning the other facilities, communal gardens will be added to the south of the newly-built double bedroom houses, and a few parking garages will be constructed at the expense of the offices and canteen near Swallow Street. Finally, a system of private roads will be added to connect the housing areas.
