Our project team will utilise their expertise across all sectors to provide a first-class service on behalf of the Council and we look forward to work starting on site."

The expansion programme has been carefully planned to ensure the development of this area will benefit the local community and will set the standard for future development programmes across Milton Keynes in the years to come."
