Will these changes impact where you live? Will they improve parking, or make the problem worse?

Please complete the consultation, as it’s important that you make your views known to the Council.

Any objections to the proposals, together with the grounds upon which they are made, must be made in writing and sent to the Council’s Traffic Regulation Order Team by email to TROteam@milton-keynes.gov.uk quoting reference TRO-298.

As your local Conservative ward team, we are concerned that local residents have not been informed about this consultation. You deserve to have the chance to share your views!

The consultation closes on 13th April 2021.
