  • WATER ROW MASTERPLAN / Govan
    WATER ROW MASTERPLAN / Govan September 2020 Water Row – heart of Govan riverside town. An inspiring neighbourhood and destination ranged around the Govan-Partick Bridge. September 2020 Update Development proposals for Water Row have continued to be refined since the launch of the Masterplan in January 2019. This third newsletter, provides a specific update on a study examining the potential for a water sports facility at Water Row and lets you know how to get involved. It also touches on the growing relationship with Glasgow University and efforts being made to ensure Govan is at the heart of the Glasgow Riverside Innovation District (GRID) proposals. 1. What is Proposed? Planning Permission in Principle was recently granted for the mixed-use regeneration of Water Row, and included around 200 new homes as well as 3,500 square metres of commercial space and new public space. In the earlier consultations that shaped the Water Row proposals, many people expressed a desire to see Govan re-engage with the River and have new facilities delivered for use by the local community; views that reflect city-wide aspirations for greater use of the River Clyde leading to a more vibrant, healthy and prosperous city. This project is investigating options to realise these aims by testing the viability of having a water sports based facility as part of the wider Water Row development. 2. What will study consider? The study will investigate the wider constraints and opportunities for water sports activity on the Clyde, the market for water sports and related leisure activities, the needs of river users and the local Govan community, and the type of building any new facility would require.

  • Overview of Allocated Funding
    Overview of allocated funding A combined total of £979,625 has been awarded to 116 community groups and workplaces through the Cycling Friendly programme with a further £821,991 awarded to registered social landlords across Scotland for improvement facilities to promote walking and cycling. More than 90,000 people will benefit from the funding. Setting Number funded Amount funded People impacted Community groups 48 £536,737 Data not collected Employers 68 £442,888 27,500 Social housing 33 £821,991 62,119 providers Total 149 £1,801,616 89,619 Kath Brough, Head of Behaviour Change at Cycling Scotland said: “We’re delighted to announce funding to 149 organisations across Scotland to encourage more people to cycle. Cycling Scotland work closely with partners to help employers, community groups and housing associations take advantage of the benefits of cycling and this round of funding will provide opportunity for over 90,000 people across Scotland to access improved cycling facilities.” Elderbank Housing Association, based in Govan, Glasgow, will receive £25,000 to install cycle parking for the 2,700 residents living across their properties, where currently there is no cycle parking. Jim Fraser, Estate Management Inspector, said “lack of storage has been a key issue for residents, especially those in older tenement buildings, so installing bike parking will remove a significant barrier to the uptake in bike ownership and cycling as a healthy activity. Govan is well established as an area of high deprivation and residents can often be found to have low household income and higher levels of household debt. This can impact greatly on people’s ability to access public transport beyond a limited geographical area and frequency due to a lack of sufficient finance.

  • Simd Analysis: Future Projections
    SIMD ANALYSIS: FUTURE PROJECTIONS 1. Background and Introduction 1.1. This paper analyses the reasons behind the recent decline of deprivation in Glasgow, projects these trends towards 2015, and comments on their likely implications. It is based on a presentation made to the Community Planning Executive Group on 2nd June 2010, which itself came from a series of events held in autumn 2009/spring 2010, involving over 120 people from council and non- council organisations in Glasgow. 1.2. The gains Glasgow made in reducing its share of Scotland’s deprivation have been the result of long-term trends that have been operating over the last two or more decades. Identifying both the trends that led to the current situation, and those currently in operation which can reasonably be presented as being influential in Glasgow towards 2015, form the basis of the projections in this paper. The main indicator used has been the Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD), and the analysis of three waves (2004, 2006 and 2009) has been supported by the use of other indicators. Looking at the absence of deprivation as well as at areas defined by deprivation includes all communities and gives a rounded analysis of the city. 1.3. The trends that have shaped the city at present are long-term and have been in operation since the 1990s, if not earlier. It follows that trends that can be identified in the present day will be those that influence the city by 2015. Their general direction has been to accelerate Glasgow’s development to its current position as a representative medium-sized western European city.
