Mobility and ways of transport

WORKSHEET 5

Last Tuesday we make an experience. We count the pedestrians and the vehicles that cross in our front during five minutes.

Questions:

-Write a short conclusion with the results you've got:

Results:

●The difference of cars between the three streets is very big, because in Casp there were 8 cars, in Gran via there were 224 and in Pau Claris there were 105.

●The difference of buses between the three streets isn't big, because in Casp there were 2 buses, in Gran via there were 5, and in Pau Claris there were 3.

●The difference of motorbikes between the three streets is big, because in Casp there were 5 motorbikes and in Pau Claris 90.

●The number of bikes in the three streets was similar. In Casp there was 1 bike, in Gran Via there were 11, and in Pau Claris there were 2 bikes.

●The number of pedestrians in the three streets was similar. In Casp there were 95 pedestrians, in Gran Via there were 103, and in Pau

Claris there were 111 pedestrians.

Conclusion:

We think that the difference of cars it is related with the room for cars and what is destinated the street for (shops, cars, pedestrians...) For example Pau Claris is destinated to cars (because it goes to the sea, to another suburb) and Casp is more comercial that's why there are more pedestrians than cars.

MOBILITY AND WAYS OF TRANSPORT

WORKSHEET 4

Last tuesday we made an experience, it was about the mobility and the ways of transport. We calculated the street width and the sidewalk width of three streets around our school, and these are the average of all the results:

We calculated the width of the street and of the sidewalk mesuring our footsteps and calculate the number of steps.

This is the conclusion:

Gran Via is the most wide street. Casp and Pau Claris are similar. The most narrow sidewalk is in Pau Claris because is a street for cars.
