Focusing on the current map, the town center is developed around a main road, which stretches from the west to the east. There are many shops to the north and to the south of the road.Â
Whilst it is mainly consisted of the countryside in the north, a big area is occupied by housing in the south. This area is limited by a park in the east and a school in the south-west. Both of these structures are connected to the main road by side roads.
Moving on to the planned development, a circular road (dual carriageway) which will surround the city centre will be built. The middle part of the main road is projected to be pedestrianised. Although the southern part of Islip is not designated to see big changes other than some new housing and a shrink in the size of the park, many changes is predicted to happen for the northern area.Â
Shops in this part will be demolished and a shopping centre and a housing area will be introduced. A bus station and a parking area are also planned to be built to the west and the east of the shopping centre, respectively.
