Monkston & Brinklow Roundabout Consultation

Monkston and Brinklow Roundabout Improvements Consultation

15th July - 14 September 2024To improve traffic flows and reduce congestion, we&rsquo;ve put together different proposals for each roundabout based on their layout, cost and level of disruption during construction works. These improvements are part of the &pound;90 million programme to upgrade major junctions and will help the roundabouts accommodate future traffic flows as development continues in the East of Milton Keynes.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Monkston Roundabout ImprovementsTwo designs were shortlisted for Monkston roundabout, modelled and assessed by an engineering consultancy. The two options for Monkston were either a &quot;hamburger&ldquo; or an enlarged signalised roundabout. Option 1 - Hamburger Roundabout -&nbsp;through-about with traffic signalsA hamburger roundabout combines a through road with a normal roundabout design, which is more efficient and lower cost<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/commonplace-digital-limited/image/upload/v1718623802/projects/664e1a4d81564921ab57eb7b/gvehuw3qyhhq7vicketw.jpg" class="fr-fic fr-dib" style="width: 650px;" data-uw-rm-alt-original="" alt="map of option 1 proposal where the road passes through the roundabout">

Monkston Roundabout ImprovementsOption 2 - Enlarged Roundabout&nbsp;with traffic signalsSubway structures will be affected which will increase the construction costs and duration of works resulting in high disruption to the network<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/commonplace-digital-limited/image/upload/v1718623846/projects/664e1a4d81564921ab57eb7b/qdmxctegkyhp22q6p4o1.jpg" class="fr-fic fr-dib" data-uw-rm-alt-original="" style="width: 650px;" alt="The enlarged roundabout">

Brinklow RoundaboutBrinklow roundabout was also assessed by an engineering consultancy. The introduction of traffic signals with minimum intervention, was found to be the best option for improving the traffic flows and reducing congestion.Proposal&nbsp;- Traffic Signals<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/commonplace-digital-limited/image/upload/v1718633959/projects/664e1a4d81564921ab57eb7b/bq7mh5xcqh9bzbpz56ci.jpg" class="fr-fic fr-dib" data-uw-rm-alt-original="" style="width: 600px;" alt="Map of Brinklow Roundabout and where the traffic signals are going">
