'''Milton Keynes''' is a town located in Buckinghamshire in the Midlands of the [[United Kingdom]], equidistant between [[Birmingham]] and [[London]]. It is a "new town" and as such employs a relatively unique road system for the UK (see end of this article), which hitchhikers would do well to bear in mind.
Hitchhiking into the town is generally considered to be relatively easy given it's its location and the consistently high volume of road traffic that travels into [[Milton Keynes]].
Hitchhiking out of [[Milton Keynes]] has proven to be difficult, especially within the limits of the town, as in most places. Milton Keynes, being so recently and constantly developed, does not have a core centre with regard to the road network. As such it can be difficult to judge precisely when one is out of town! Despite this the high number of bus stops, lay-bys and petrol stations on major roads through town (including the A509, A422, A4146 and A5130) enable potential hitchhiking.
