The renewal of the waterfront is expected to create over 20,000
new homes. 8,500 new homes have already been created between 2003
and 2010. It is critical that they are integrated with existing
communities to ensure urban cohesion. A proportion of these homes
will be affordable homes for rent or shared equity purchase.
better neighbourhoods
Working with our all partners, we have identified a programme of
community regeneration action totalling more than £100 million
over 20 - 25 years. This activity will ensure that
neighbourhoods are engaged in the entire redevelopment process.
Our plans also need to take account of the historic buildings
and public space along the river, using them imaginatively to
benefit local residents and making the Clyde a safer, cleaner and
more welcoming place to live.
