en.Wedoany.com Reported - Glasgow City Council has approved City Development Plan 2 (CDP2), which will guide the city's development and regeneration over the next decade, aiming to release land for the construction of more than 30,000 new homes.
As part of CDP2, key objectives include creating economic development zones to provide jobs and growth, supporting city centre regeneration, and providing a basis for determining where development should take place. The plan also involves protecting Glasgow's built heritage, open spaces, and natural environment, identifying opportunities for buildings at risk, tree planting, and food cultivation, supporting public transport and active travel improvements, and developing a riverside park along the River Clyde.
From late August, CDP2 will undergo a 12-week public consultation period, during which community groups and other organisations can submit comments. Ruairi Kelly, Glasgow City Council's Convener for Development, Heritage, Housing and Land Use, stated that the plan will not only enable the construction of tens of thousands of new homes and create new job opportunities but also create more sustainable places across the city, making Glasgow a more liveable city and attracting investment.
CDP2 includes 36 transformation areas across the city, aiming to release land for more than 30,000 homes along the River Clyde corridor, and in northern and northeastern Glasgow, with a focus on using brownfield sites for new housing. The plan will also create economic development zones as focal points for business growth and innovation, propose regeneration schemes for local town centres such as Drumchapel, Easterhouse, Shawlands, and Castlemilk, as well as the city centre, and realise the significant regeneration potential of the River Clyde corridor.
