Park wasteland to be converted into attractive green space

Work has started to transform a park in Barrhead that will see a former wasteland become a new green space with active travel routes.

The derelict waste-ground site at Walton Street within Carlibar Park and close to Barrhead town centre, which has been empty for decades will soon be turned into an attractive place for people to spend their time.

The East Renfrewshire Council-led development is being funded by a £1.6m investment from the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) and £1.1m from the Scottish Government's vacant and derelict land investment programme.
