The GCV Green Network Partnership are setting their sights on creating a comprehensive delivery blueprint for the Glasgow Clyde Valley area.

For Glasgow and the Clyde Valley, the first step in the process will be the testing of the ‘blueprint’ approach through the development of a local-authority wide Green Network Strategy.

The East Dunbartonshire Green Network Strategy will, using a combination of mapping analysis and local knowledge, identify existing Green Network assets and new delivery opportunities. The Partnership’s Opportunities Mapping approach will be a key tool in identifying gaps and opportunities.

The intention is that the prototype process used to develop the East Dunbartonshire strategy will be rolled out across the eight regional authorities creating a robust, achievable delivery blueprint.
