New Towns Taskforce

On 28 September 2025 the New Towns Taskforce published its long awaited report. The full report can be found at New Towns Taskforce Report

The taskforce was commissioned by the government in September 2024 to identify specific locations for new towns and to make recommendations on how they might be designed and delivered, with a particular focus on unlocking economic growth as well as making a significant contribution to meeting housing demand in England.

As you will see on page 52 to 54 of the report, Milton Keynes has been identified as a potential site of a ‘renewed town’ which could support the increased delivery of c.40,000 new homes across the city and expansions to the city periphery. The map below is taken from the report.

Whilst a number of conversations are believed to be ongoing and MKCC are supporting this proposal, it is important to stress that no formal decisions or planning applications have yet been made. However, knowing how much of the land in our Parish is either owned by or optioned to developers, we are very much keeping our eyes open for developments and will use this page to update you as and when we get further information.
