Notice Description

Milton Keynes Council is intending to commission a 'City Wide Infrastructure Study' as part of a comprehensive suite of background evidence studies that can inform and support future policy making. The Study will need to analyse and determine the infrastructure implications and requirements from the significant housing and employment growth anticipated in our Strategy for 2050, and delivered initially through our new Local Plan to 2040.

As such the Council is seeking expressions of interest based on the information provided within the attached document.
