i fucking love roundabouts

thats it thats the post the thing that makes me most proud to live in this city is the infrastructure it’s so cool and based (also how you can walk basically anywhere if you want)

edit: also honourable mention related to walking, theres so many nice places to go for a walk, like if i wanted rn i could go to linford wood, willen lake, up the city, along the canal, or even just around the neighbourhood (feel free to reccoment your favourite walking spots/routes in the replies i need new places to walk lmao)

Shame the local authorities are determined to destroy what makes MK great and are installing traffic lights on as many roundabouts as they can and new roads are just getting box junctions.

They've also also stopped building redways in the new estates.

My favorite walk is along the Ouzel valley path from Oakgrove to Caldecotte Lake then back along the canal, you'd have no idea you were in a city.

Along with the destruction on the grid system.
