Majority of the people in the area uses their car to go to work, this needs to be solved as it contributes to co2 emission. The population has increase throughout the years, between 2014 and 2019 the population in fratton went up by 1.0% There are mostly females however the ratio of males to females are close. While there are many ethnic groups, according to census, majority of the area are of white ethnicity. Population Methods of travel to work Ethnicity Gender range Transportation Building uses Green areas and ground spaces Key: Bicycle route Retail Religious buildings Commercial buildings Healthcare Recreation and Leisure Residential Educational Green grounds Parks Cemetery Religious grounds Educational grounds O ce Roads and Streets Railway Bus route Key: Key: SITE PHOTOS Taken from farm foods you could see that there is a car park and lled meaning people there may use more cars as a source of transport. Upon entering Wimpole court, the site doesnt look apealing, there are chalk marked on the ground, kids may want to play outside but there isn’t any playground near by. The place where residences throw their trash away is also the only place people can meet and it is also the main source of circulation. 1 2 3 5 6 2 3 Another open green space with no sittings and, high fences, you could also see that the trees themselves have been cemented and feels locked up, An open green area but there are no seats or anything to interact the space with, it is also surrounded with high fences, so the residence don’t get to enjoy the green view either. A basketball court, the only nice thing there is at the site, however its placed far from the other courts, It was the only space that had an activity to do. 4 5 6
