Answer:
a, b, c --- all <em>not</em> representative
Step-by-step explanation:
The question posed by the engineer is "are residents of the city in favor of ...".
The only representative sample is one from a pool that includes <em>all residents of the city</em>—not just those who (a) use the road, (b) live along the road, or (c) own homes.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The engineer may want to refine the question. As posed, it would include children, homeless, and/or institutionalized residents of the city as well as drivers and tax-payers. In inclusive cultural traditions, "residents of the city" may also include animals, plants, water, air, and other holders of spiritual energy.
