Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

Outline application (means of access from Broughton Road and Broughton Grounds Lane to be considered, with all other matters of access, layout, scale, appearance and landscaping reserved) for a cross-boundary mixed-use urban extension proposing up to 3,500 dwellings (2,750 in Milton Keynes and 750 in Central Bedfordshire) across market, affordable, and self/custom-build housing; mixed-use employment areas; retirement and specialised housing; early years, primary, and secondary schools; and mixed-use neighbourhood and local centres and community facilities. Development includes multi-modal transport hubs, active travel routes and public transport infrastructure, highways improvements (including works to M1 motorway bridges and a new active travel bridge), the diversion of watercourses and associated works including sustainable drainage systems (SuDS), utilities, ground remodelling, earthworks and demolition of existing structures, with the creation of green spaces including sports pitches, play areas, structural landscaping and habitat creation.

About outline applications

An outline application tests the principle of developing a site, holding back details such as appearance and landscaping as reserved matters for later approval. More in our guide to planning application types.
