Milton Keynes City Council has announced plans to close the A509 junction to the M1 for 18 months until 31st March 2025 as part of the Labour-Lib Dem leadership's MK East expansion plans.
This will cause traffic chaos in Newport Pagnell and the nearby villages and is unfair on these residents who have already had to suffer from non-stop road closures and works over the past 18 months.
Since my election I have passionately opposed the council's MK East development, but they have ploughed on regardless.
I have set up this petition to demand that the Labour-Lib Dem Council thinks again on closing the A509 for an entire year and actually puts our rural residents first for a change by coming up with an alternative solution.
The road is set to close on 25th September so please get your signatures in by then and share far and wide.
Thanks,
Ben
