Milton Keynes Council

Established in 1967 as the most successful product of the new towns movement and a cultural artefact in its own right, MK has been the fastest-growing city and economy in the UK for the past 30 years. Milton Keynes Council is its unitary authority, delivering more than 250 services to 270,000 diverse citizens. The MK Futures 2050 Commission was initiated by the council in 2015 as a project to explore the long-term futures for MK as it emerges as a UK city and economy of increasing significance. Big projects for the city's future include the creation of MK:U, improving the city centre, and leading the way on smart, shared, sustainable mobility.
