Topography
The landform splits the city into two poorly connected districts.
The major modes of transportation are in this valley i.e. the railway station, the bus station and the Ring Road.
Lack of safe DDA compliable routes and pedestrian routes between the City Centre, the station, Park Hill and Manor and Castle neighbourhoods.
