    About our Milton Keynes (MK) news

    Latest news on Milton Keynes, providing comprehensive coverage of Buckinghamshire's largest city, its development, business growth, transport links and community events.

    Milton Keynes, one of Britain's most successful New Towns, has grown into a thriving city of over 270,000 residents. Known for its distinctive grid road system, abundance of roundabouts, and innovative urban planning, the city stands as a testament to modern British urban development. Home to major businesses like Network Rail and Santander UK, Milton Keynes continues to attract investment and foster economic growth.

    The city's ongoing development includes significant expansion plans through the MK2050 strategy, which aims to accommodate sustainable growth and create opportunities for future generations. The council's regeneration programmes are transforming areas like the city centre and Bletchley, while improvements to transport infrastructure, including the East-West Rail project connecting Oxford to Cambridge, are enhancing connectivity. The city's commitment to green initiatives is evident in its extensive network of parks, cycling paths, and the deployment of autonomous delivery robots.

    Milton Keynes boasts a vibrant cultural scene centred around venues like Milton Keynes Theatre, Stadium MK, and the MK Gallery. The city's calendar is packed with events such as the International Festival Milton Keynes and the annual Food Festival. The innovative MK Dons football club plays a central role in community life, while the Xscape complex, with its indoor ski slope, attracts visitors from across the region. Local communities benefit from the city's unique design featuring distinct neighbourhood districts, each with its own character and amenities.

    Though officially designated as a New Town in 1967, the area's history stretches back much further. The original Milton Keynes village dates to the 11th century, and the district encompasses historic market towns like Stony Stratford and Wolverton. The city's innovative design, masterminded by Lord Norman Foster and other leading architects, incorporated existing communities while creating a new urban landscape. This blend of heritage and modernity remains evident in landmarks such as Bletchley Park, famous for its role in World War II codebreaking, which now serves as a museum and tourist attraction.
