Glasgow City Council has promised new land fit for 30,000 new homes and support for the regeneration of the city centre as part of newly approved plans.

Over the next decade, City Development Plan 2 will inform decisions on where development should happen and ensure the delivery of quality, accessible and welcoming places across the city.

A 12-week period of representation on the plan will begin in late August, where community groups and other organisation can have their voices heard.

Councillor Ruairi Kelly, convener for development, heritage, housing and land use at Glasgow City Council, said: “The new City Development Plan is the blueprint for Glasgow’s future, not only enabling the building of tens of thousands of new homes and new jobs, but creating better and more sustainable places throughout the city.

"This work will make Glasgow a better place to live and attract the type of investment which will drive the city’s future economic growth.”

Land in 36 areas will aim to be made available for over 30,000 homes along the River Clyde corridor, north and north-east Glasgow, featuring the reuse of brownfield land for new homes.

Drumchapel, Easterhouse, Shawlands and Castlemilk, will also be targeted for regenerations.
