Answer Details

A conurbation is a build-up area that consists of a number of towns or cities merged together yet maintaining their individual identities. It is a continuous urban area that is formed by the expansion and merging of several cities or towns. This leads to the formation of a larger metropolitan area. Examples of conurbations include the Greater London Urban Area, which consists of London and the surrounding cities and towns that have grown together over time.
