Construction News Image

A major housing development in Glasgow is set to deliver 330 additional homes following a strategic re-plan and planning approval from Glasgow City Council.

Set to be one of the largest regeneration schemes in the UK across multiple phases, top 10 UK housebuilder Keepmoat will increase its delivery from 834 homes to 1,164 at its flagship NorthBridge scheme in Sighthill.

In late 2025, the housebuilder celebrated the completion of its first phase at the site, located off Pinkston Road, which created 154 homes alongside enhanced transport links, green spaces, and walking and cycling routes.

Tim Metcalfe, Regional Managing Director at Keepmoat Scotland, said: "This is a significant milestone in seeing much needed homes moving forward for the area. We're thrilled to have secured approval of our strategic re-plan for this transformative development to create much needed homes alongside the council.

"At Keepmoat we're committed to creating sustainable, multi-tenure communities that prioritise well designed neighbourhoods with high quality homes, green spaces and abundant connections into existing communities.

"The NorthBridge project reflects our long-term commitment to the city and our ambition to create exceptional places to live alongside the council."

The developer is currently delivering phases two and three of the site, which are set to create 246 homes, including 41 homes designated for local housing association Wheatley Homes Glasgow.

Councillor Ruairi Kelly, Convener for Housing and Development at Glasgow City Council, said: "This is welcome news for Sighthill as it continues its ongoing regeneration, and indeed the whole city. The building of a further 330 high-quality homes in a Glasgow neighbourhood that has been transformed in recent years will be an important part of what the council and its partners are working to do to make as many homes as possible available."

Keepmoat is a top 10 UK partnership homebuilder with a track record of delivering quality homes in regions across the UK. To date, the company has built over 35,000 homes, transforming brownfield sites into thriving new communities.
