Maps of proposed garden cities

The Telegraph share some maps showing the new proposed garden cities that might appear in the UK during the next three decades.

Forty of these garden cities are being proposed to be built by 2045AD  by David Rudlin, from the design consultancy Urbed.

These new garden cities would be built alongside existing towns, such as Northampton, Norwich, Rugby, Reading and Stafford, with an estimated 150,000 people housed in each.

Rudlin has called for a new Garden Cities Act, to help with the development of his proposals. 

Looking at the maps, they are hardly the Sci-fi future I imagined as a kid. 

There's not a flying car in sight.
