INTERNATIONAL LINK SCHOOL PROJECT – SSMJ and the Lord’s School

Investigating Transport in the UK and Pakistan

TRAFFIC IN OXFORD – Report

By Year Four

Introduction

We wanted to investigate the type of traffic on the road in Oxford to compare with the traffic in Lahore where our link school is. We decided to do traffic surveys and create bar charts showing our results. These are the results of our investigations. We hope you find them interesting and perhaps the children in Pakistan will notice things that are similar and things that are different about traffic in our countries!
