The maps below show changes in the Spanish city of Castellon in recent times

Task

The two maps show how a Spanish city called Castellon has changed from 2000 to the present day.

It is obvious that this city has been upgraded with many new public services but transportation was developed in a more environmentally-friendly way.

In 2000, the city center next to the road running from west to east served car and other vehicles, but now it only allows bike, with a bike rental scheme and the road is used for pedestrians only. There was a university located in the north with some trees on the right, but recently, a new hall of residence was constructed on the left while the nearby trees are all cut down to make room for a new shopping centre and the university is currently connected with the centre by a tramline. A train station and an old market were situated in the west, which are now replaced by a police station and a new shop respectively.

To the east and along the ocean, it was mostly pristine and uninhabited in 2000, but an airport is under construction and a covered market is operating in the eastern part. Beside the port, there are newly-built cinema and bars, clubs.
