Motor traffic is segregated from pedestrian and leisure cycling traffic, [a] which uses the alternative Milton Keynes redway system. Almost all grid junctions are roundabouts , and the absence of traffic lights (from most) enables free and efficient movement of traffic.
The Milton Keynes redway system (locally known as redways) is an over 200 miles (320 kilometres) network of shared use paths for cyclists and pedestrians in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, England. [1] It is generally surfaced with red tarmac, and criss-crosses most of the city.
In some jurisdictions (such as New York City), [citation needed] there are ordinances or by-laws against "gridlocking".A motorist entering an intersection (even if on a green light) but unable to proceed and who gets stranded in the intersection (when traffic ahead fails to proceed), and who remains after the light turns red (thus blocking traffic from other directions) may be cited.

The River Great Ouse forms the northern boundary of the urban area; a tributary, the River Ouzel, meanders through its linear parks and balancing lakes.

In New Zealand, where traffic is on the left, when a road is given a green light from an all-direction stop, a red arrow can continue to display to turning traffic, holding traffic back while a pedestrian crossing on the side road is given a green signal (for left turns) or while oncoming traffic goes straight ahead and there is no permissive right turn allowed (for right turns).
The line was seen as unprofitable, and it closed to passengers in 1964, and to goods traffic in 1967. Part of the trackbed today provides a section of the Milton Keynes redway system, a network of shared paths that serves the Milton Keynes urban area. [1]
An early two-light traffic signal by White Horse Tavern in Hudson Street, New York. Image taken in 1961. Despite the failure of the world's first traffic light in London in 1869, countries all around the world still made traffic lights. By 1880, traffic lights spread all over the world, and it has always been like that, since then.
