GCV Green Network
Connecting Our Quality Spaces

The Clyde Waterfront is a nationally important urban renewal project.  It stretches both sides of the Clyde from Clydebank to the City Centre and aims to transform the River Clyde corridor over the next 20 years.

The River Clyde corridor forms the ‘backbone’ of the Glasgow & Clyde Valley (GCV) Green Network.

The aim for the Clyde Waterfront is for it to become a place where people will want to live and work and where businesses will locate and grow.  Critical to this success is integration of Green Network thinking with the regeneration process. Consequently, in 2006 the Partnership commissioned a Green Network Strategy for the Clyde Waterfront area. 

The Green Network Strategy aimed to address these issues by looking in detail at 11 action zones along the study area. The ultimate aim is to encourage much greater use of the corridor as a recreational and commuting route.

Recently, the Partnership has undertaken a review of the original Strategy to respond to recent policy initiatives and ensure the Strategy is still relevant. This review prioritises specific projects in the short term which are seen as key to delivering the Green Network Vision for the Clyde Waterfront.

The revised Clyde Waterfront Green Network Strategy was completed in March 2010.
