Milton Keynes Boundary Walk
A walk of 102km which encircles the Borough of Milton Keynes. It has a sort of cometary orbit — running close to the edge of the built-up area in the south-west, and looping well beyond the land of concrete cows into the deeply rural part of the borough as it passes through the other three quadrants.
This is demonstrated by the paucity of bus services outside the urban part of Milton Keynes. It only just squeezes past the 20km-gap criterion to qualify as a Green Walk.
As far as I can make out, excepting school services, tidal rush-hour-only routes, and one-day-per-week services, the list below contains the locations for public transport connections — bustimes.org should have details.
