Milton Keynes City Council (The Council of the Borough of Milton Keynes) (Various Roads in Milton Keynes and Surrounding Areas) (20 mph Speed Restriction) Order 2021) Variation Order 2022

The effect of the above proposed Order will be to introduce a 20mph speed limit restriction on the following length of road:

Walton Drive, Milton Keynes

From its junction with H9 Groveway, for a distance of 210 metres in a north-westerly direction.
