Govan is set to undergo a major transformation in the coming years and on May 5 residents will have the opportunity to elect the councillors they want to represent them during that process.
The regeneration of Water Row has been approved, with 200 homes and around 3,500 square metres of commercial space planned. The project will connect to the new Govan to Partick bridge, another scheme which is seen as essential to the redevelopment of the area.
The Govan ward, which takes in Drumoyne, Ibrox, Linthouse and Plantation, also includes Shieldhall, Cessnock, Kinning Park and Tradeston. However, Bellahouston, Craigton and Dumbreck fall under the Pollokshields ward after boundary changes in 2017.
