A major development opportunity at Lomondgate in Dumbarton is currently being promoted by Strathleven Regeneration Company and the Walker Group.
Lomondgate Business Village is a high profile site situated at the
entrance to Lomondgate Business Park, immediately adjacent to the
A82. The site extends to approximately 2.67 acres (1.08 ha) and
lies approximately one mile north west of Dumbarton town centre.
Planning permission "In Principle" has been granted for The Hub
amenity building and outline planning permission has been granted
for Class 4 office use on the business park. Lomondgate
Business Village comprises The Hub amenity building which, as
currently planned, provides a mixture of retail, crèche and office
space, with the land to the west laid out to provide a number of
smaller self contained office buildings totalling 16,500 sq
ft. This site forms part of the wider Lomondgate project that
includes roadside services, a business park and approximately 330
houses.
Lomondgate is arguably one of Scotland's most successful
regeneration projects with BBC Scotland and Aggreko as anchor
occupiers. Aggreko are currently building a new 185,000 sq ft
manufacturing plant and associated offices on part of the site
which is due for occupation by the end of this year. In
addition, a new 60 bed Premier Inn and Brewers Fayre Restaurant has
recently opened and work is shortly due to start on a Costa Coffee
drive thru - their first in Scotland. In addition,
discussions are well advanced with an operator for the petrol
filling station and convenience store. Walker Group has just
started on their part of the residential element with the first
units being available for occupation from June this year.
Persimmon will shortly embark on their part of the residential
development.
