IELTS Writing Task 1: band 9 map answer

IELTS Writing Task 1: band 9 map answer pK1o3
The two maps describe how a small town named Islip is planned to change in comparison with its current layout. Overall, the town has been completely transformed after the constructions of several facilities. However the main road as well as the school and the park will remain largely unchanged. Currently, this centre has a main road running east to west with two shops on each side. North of the main road is a countryside area. On this road, there are two houses on the south side. A school is located to the west of these areas. There is also a park on the east side next to the housing estate. Both the school and the park are connected to the main road by two side roads. As can be seen from the second photo, the most noticeable change is the construction of a route around the town. In addition, the main road has been converted into a pedestrian area and the countryside and shops in the north have been cleared to make way for new facilities such as bus stops, car parks. built on two sides, in the middle is a shopping mall. In addition, there is also a new housing area that has been relocated from west to east, with a small alley connecting to the main road. Finally, on the south side almost unchanged, the shops have remained the same, the school has been built slightly larger while the park has been reduced. There is a new housing complex next to the park.
