Current schemes

We design and develop schemes to plan for future developments and traffic flow. We also look at how road safety can be improved where issues have been identified.

These are some of the projects we are currently working on:

 

Monkston and Brinklow Roundabouts Improvements

We're planning some major improvements to these two roundabouts.

A public consultation on the options  was carried out between 15 July and 14 September. You can view the Closed Consultation on our website here.

These improvements will help to manage future development and traffic level as Monkston and Brinklow roundabouts have been identified as areas that will see volumes of traffic increasing over the next few years and are already at capacity.

You can also view a short video clip showing the traffic modelling on our YouTube channel.

 

New redway link, Tudor Gardens, Calverton End 

The consultation on the proposed Redway Link ended on 2 February 2024. We received 102 responses and have reviewed all of these as part of the process. 

You can read the full results report  here

The original proposal was to create a Redway link between Fairfields and Stony Stratford that will allow cyclists and pedestrians to travel safely between these two areas and access the wider redway network. 

The link will go through Tudor Gardens, Calverton End using part of the existing footpath which will tie-in with the new Redway.

H10 Bletcham Way - Grid Road Extension

From January 2024

As part of the approved planning application for the Church Farm development, an access road will be constructed from the H10 Bletcham Way to the Church Farm site. The access road is only suitable for this development and will be unsuitable to accommodate any future developments beyond the Church Farm site. 

However, a recently completed feasibility study has indicated that future development of this road is possible, which would mean upgrading the road to the standard and capacity of a grid road. This new grid road section would serve the new Church Farm site and any other future developments.  We've decided to construct this access road section of the H10 Bletcham Way to accommodate future traffic in this area. 

Due to the scale of the project, it has been divided into two phases: 

  1. Phase 1 – Construction of a temporary access road. Initial works on the construction of the main, new grid road section. 
  2. Phase 2 – Construction of the main Eastern extension of H10 Bletcham Way grid road which includes a new bridge over Byrd Crescent and a new enlarged roundabout. 

 

Phase 1  

Starts January until end May 2024 and includes:

  • Site clearance – remove some trees and vegetation.  
  • Ground investigation works – bore and trial holes to determine ground bearing capacity. 
  • Reconstruct junction Gregorie's Drive with Bryd Crescent 
  • Construct new temporary road.  
  • Footway on east side of Byrd Crescent will remain open to pedestrians.  
  • Redway and bridleway within the area of works will need to be suspended on safety grounds, signed diversion. 
  • Buses on diversion 
  • Local vehicular access maintained. 
  • Emergency vehicle access maintained at all times. 

 

Phase 2  

Autumn 2024 for approx. 18 months duration and includes:

  • Construction of H10 Bletcham Way Extension 
  • New roundabout installed 
  • New Bridge over Bryd Crescent 
  • Extensive landscaping works / replacement of trees 
  • Noise bunds and barriers  
  • Extension of redways and footways 
  • Service diversions
