There are many different ways in which social order can be produced in public spaces; I will look at two of these views.

These are two different views of how social order is produced in relation to traffic management. I will look at the areas these views share in common‚ as well as their differences and I will analyse the strengths and weaknesses of both views. The Buchanan report was created by

DD101 TMA01 Drawing from what I have learned from the study materials‚ I will be looking at High Street in Hirwaun and outlining some of the inequalities in comparison to City Road.
