Milton Keynes, famously known as the UK’s ‘Roundabout City’, shares another connection
with Hamad Town – a famed collection of creature artworks.
Milton Keynes is renowned for its concrete cows in a field which have become a tourism attraction and the kingdom has an impressive flock of lifelike
Arabian Onyx near a roundabout, of course, on Shaikh Salman Highway heading towards Awali.
Milton Keynes was designed in the 1960s with an innovative grid road system, it features 130 roundabouts.
It is suffering from similar Hamad Town challenges nowadays and has been considering introducing split ‘hamburger’ roundabouts, which have roads
running through the centre of the islands, with traffic signals to help drivers navigate the new system.
