Green spaces on the River Clyde

A network of green spaces along the river

As redevelopment gathers pace along the river, green space will be vital in making the river an attractive place for people to visit. Many local initiatives are under way to promote walkways and cycle paths, parks, green spaces and natural habitats for wildlife to flourish.

The Green Network will connect adjoining communities with key destinations, environmental assets and the wider countryside. It will underpin regeneration proposals and provide a range of recreational opportunities for all communities.

The Green Network Strategy provides the detail on how this vision can be realised along the length of the Clyde Waterfront area.

The strategy introduces a number of Green Network Projects - important steps in developing the network.

The network will become an integral part of Clyde Waterfront's appeal, with the Clyde Wide Green Network encouraging leisure activity and connecting visitor destinations. The network will also enhance habitat networks.

Our vision for the future of the Green Network along the Clyde Waterfront will guide future policy development and investment. The key objectives are to:

1. Create Connections
2. Maximise Recreational Opportunities
3. Assist Regeneration
4. Enhance habitats
5. Encourage multi-functional space
6. Focus on Key Projects
