Our project with Scottish Water and Glasgow City Council will use the 250-year-old Forth & Clyde Canal and cutting-edge technology to unlock 110 hectares of land for investment, regeneration and development.
The widespread regeneration of North Glasgow is set to continue with a 600-strong housing development now underway on the former Diageo distillery site in Port Dundas as part of the Dundashill project.
An additional £1.625m funding has been awarded to Scottish Canals to enable repairs and improvements to Bonnybridge and Twechar bridges on the Forth and Clyde Canal, and to carry out further repair work at Ardrishaig Pier.
Scottish Canals has launched a new strategy setting out how the organisation will manage, care for, and prioritise works on the infrastructure of the nation’s 250-year-old waterways between now and 2030 in the face of a £70 million repair backlog.
