4What should you consider before making your
choice?
- Its location (which part of the city is it in?)
eg. outer suburbs near the edge, inner city
near the centre - How would people get there? is it accessible by
road, rail, tram, car etc? How far to motorway,
train station, tram stops? - What it the land like? Is it suitable to build
on? Is it level or sloping? - Are there any natural hazards? Might it flood?
- What it in the immediate area? - type of
housing, industry etc - What is the environment like? - is it a
BROWNFIELD (used for building already) or a
GREENFIELD site (undeveloped land)? - Would anyone object to this site? - consider
traffic, noise, parking, effect on house prices
etc. - What benefit might the development bring to the
local area?
You MUST answer these questions on your
presentation

Bramhall Lane) - How will you overcome any problems? eg. slopes,
car parking, access to public transport,
opposition from locals, using a greenfield site,

family team, a team from history, a silly
team..)
