Engagement Events To Take Place For Glasgow City Region Deal Projects

Construction News Image
Residents are being invited to find out more information about two major infrastructure projects spanning Renfrewshire, West Dunbartonshire and Glasgow.

A series of engagement events will take place over four days in Renfrew, Paisley, Clydebank and Yoker. Feedback during the exhibitions will be used to inform a full planning application for both schemes.

The Clyde Waterfront and Renfrew Riverside project includes developing a new opening bridge across the River Clyde linking Renfrew with Yoker and Clydebank, including construction of the Renfrew North Development Road and new cycle routes.

Elsewhere, proposals for the Glasgow Airport Investment Area include realigning Abbotsinch Road, building a new bridge over the White Cart and developing new cycle routes between the Westway, Inchinnan and Airport business parks.

Plans for the Clyde Waterfront and Renfrew Riverside project will be submitted to Renfrewshire Council, West Dunbartonshire Council and Glasgow City Council, while works related to the Glasgow Airport Investment Area are entirely within Renfrewshire and will be considered by this authority alone. The schemes are part of the Glasgow City Region City Deal.

The exhibitions run from 11am to 7pm and include a video representation of the findings from the comprehensive traffic modelling study, as well as an animated fly-through model of the potential developments.

The events will start at Renfrew Town Hall on Monday, 08 May then Paisley Town Hall on Tuesday, 09 May. The project team then cross the river to Clydebank Town Hall on Wednesday, 10 May finishing at Yoker Community Campus on Thursday, 11 May.

A spokesman for the Renfrewshire City Deal said: "Events throughout 2016 helped shape the projects so far and I would encourage anyone to come along to these final consultation exhibitions taking place in their area. It is a fantastic opportunity to learn more about the projects, speak to the project team and provide input before the plans are finalised."
