Glasgow City Network: Inner North and South

Glasgow City Council's  Active Travel Strategy 2022-2031 sets out the concept of a City Network to provide a dense network of high-quality protected cycle lanes and improved pedestrian infrastructure across Glasgow, to be delivered by 2031. The network is aiming to link services and facilities across multiple neighbourhoods, providing easy and safe active journeys across Glasgow for everyone.

GCC is working together with its consultant team to progress the first two areas of the City Network - the Inner North and South - to concept designs by the end of the year. The route design proposals for both these areas are set out in the City Network StoryMap.

After viewing the route designs the following questions focus on what features you would like to see along the routes of the City Network that would encourage and support you to walk, wheel or cycle more in these areas for everyday journeys. Please also tell us any other information that may impact any of the proposed Inner North or South City Network routes.

The City Centre Strategic Development Framework (SDF), adopted in 2021, provides flexible urban design guidelines and suggests creating specific guidelines for tall buildings to assist developers and planners. Glasgow is seeing new development and investment, which is essential for sustainable and natural growth. To help with this, the Tall Building Design Guidance was created. It offers advice for developers and planning officers to make the pre-application process smoother and ensure buildings are well-designed and appropriately located. The guidance includes a Map of Appropriateness and Design Parameters, along with clarifications on planning requirements and technical details on sustainable design for tall buildings.

This study covers the areas as defined by the City centre Strategy. It's the first in a series of area assessments, with more to come focusing on major local town centres. This study was prioritized due to current economic changes and pressures on the city.

We would welcome the views of members of the public, technical experts, and our Stakeholders and Strategic Partners on the impact of tall buildings in the city centre and ways we can improve our city in this modern environment.

Open Government: Call for Ideas 2024

Glasgow has been a member of the Open Government Partnership since 2020, and the values of openness, transparency, accountability and participation are core to our membership. Having delivered our first Open Government Action Plan for Glasgow, we are now starting to develop our next Plan to cover 2024-2027.

Our first Open Government Action Plan for Glasgow, focussed on actions to increase public participation, explore a digital engagement platform, create an open data hub, and build communications on open government. Are there things from the previous Action Plan you want us to keep doing, do you have improvements or changes to be addressed, or are there new priorities you'd like included this time.

We want to hear the ideas and priorities of the public, third sector, and other stakeholders in the city to help us decide what to put in our next Open Government Action Plan for Glasgow. We will use this to inform a series of public workshops to explore these themes in more detail in Autumn 2024.
