The Milton Keynes Strategy for 2050 (adopted by Council January 2021 as an annex to the Council Plan) presents a long-term growth strategy for Milton Keynes borough to a population of around 410,000 people (from around 270,000 people today) which is part of a Greater Milton Keynes of around half a million, set within a context of growth across the wider Oxford-Cambridge Arc. Among its seven big ambitions, the strategy aims to 'make it easier for everyone to travel on foot, by bike and with better public transport'. A major part of the strategy is to introduce a Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) network for the city, helping people move about in a more energy and space efficient way. It will also support reduced dependence on private car travel, more sustainable development, improved accessibility and social inclusion, and decarbonisation. The strategy aims for a phased delivery of MRT so that a complete network is operational by at least 2050.
