As the UK slowly edges out of the Covid -19 lockdown there is a pressing imperative to understand what impact the pandemic will have on our neighbourhoods, the design of our cities and how significant the change will be.
The Government recognises the Oxford – Cambridge Arc as a growth area of national importance. This Urbanism Series will focus on Milton Keynes, which is located at the centre of the OCA. The session is being coordinated with Milton Keynes Council and follows on from the publication of the ‘MK Strategy for 2050’ in January.
