Background
Milton Keynes was selected as one of several pilots for England's flexible voting reforms, hosting the UK's first central voting hub at Midsummer Place shopping centre on 1 May 2026. The hub model consolidates multiple polling stations into a single accessible venue open throughout the day.
As a large unitary authority with dispersed settlements and new housing estates, Milton Keynes was seen as a practical test bed for the hub concept. Results from the pilot will inform whether central hubs are rolled out nationally at future elections.
