Clyde Waterfront Regeneration
The 20 km long Clyde Waterfront Regeneration, launched in 2003, embraced a section of the River Clyde in Scotland that runs from Glasgow Green in the city's center to Dumbarton down river. This scene focused on earlier initiatives under way from the 1980s, and as a separate marketing tool, with several local authorities involved, came to an end in 2014.
Projects under way at the time involved local commerce, housing, tourism, and infrastructure. The planned public and private investment in Clyde Waterfront as of 2008 was pegged at £5–6 billion.
The Clyde Waterfront Regeneration project was an initiative aimed at progressing the transforming of the waterfront area of Glasgow, Scotland.
Some of the key aspects of the Clyde Waterfront Regeneration project were:
New commercial and residential properties: the project involved the construction of new buildings, including office spaces, residential properties, and hotels. Notable developments included the Riverside Museum, the Hydro arena, and the Glasgow Science Centre Tower.
Public spaces: the project aimed to create more public spaces along the waterfront, including parks, walkways, and cycle paths. The Glasgow Harbour development sought a riverside promenade.
Infrastructure improvements: The project also involved significant infrastructure improvements, including the upgrading of roads, bridges, and public transport links. The Clyde Arc, also known as the Squinty Bridge, was built as part of the project, and provides a new pedestrian and cycle route across the river.
The Clyde Waterfront Regeneration project is a collaboration between Glasgow City Council, Scottish Enterprise, and other partners. It was seen as a key driver of economic growth in the area, and attracted significant investment from both public and private sectors.
As well as supporting inward investment and tourism, the aim of the regeneration of the Clyde was to benefit local communities. It was intended that local people would benefit from the improvements to transport and leisure facilities, shops and businesses, and from new jobs coming into the area. An estimated 50,000 new jobs will be created as businesses relocate in the area and more housing is built. Re-training is vital and a range of support is available locally to make sure residents can exploit the new opportunities as they arise.
