Central crossroads
Bo's commercial heart sits where several main roads meet. On the map this is the densest part of the city, and the rest of the pattern radiates from it.

The map
Bo is the capital of Sierra Leone's Southern Province and the country's second-largest city. From above, it has a loose, spreading plan. A central commercial area gathers around a few main junctions, and the residential neighbourhoods fan outward on roads that branch into the surrounding low hills, farmland and patches of forest.
The city grew around the railway that once ran inland from Freetown, and it later became a centre of education and trade for the south. Bo School, founded in 1906, is one of the best-known schools in the country. The surrounding region is also associated with diamond mining and agriculture.
A Bo map poster shows a city growing organically rather than to a formal plan. The central streets form a moderately dense cluster. Main roads extend outward like branches, and the gaps between them fill with irregular residential lanes that fade gently into open ground at the edges.
Bo's commercial heart sits where several main roads meet. On the map this is the densest part of the city, and the rest of the pattern radiates from it.
Routes toward Kenema, Freetown and the southern districts leave the centre in different directions. They give the city a spreading, star-like outline.
Around the built-up area, the street network loosens into farmland and forest. That leaves soft, open edges that frame the city on the poster.
