The Place, The Vision - Progress Update January 2021 Our Vision Improving the lives of our residents and regenerating local communities for long-term economic growth are the drivers behind our ambition for North Lanarkshire. Our plan supports the local economy by creating new jobs, regenerating local communities and transforming our town centres into vibrant multi-use spaces - all part of the council’s vision to make North Lanarkshire the place to live, learn, work invest and visit. We’re investing £3.5 billlion over the next 10 years, which, along with private sector inward investment, will create around 12,000 jobs and generate an additional £1billion for the local economy. We’re already making progress, with new housing developments underway, plans for town and community hubs, commercial investment and improvements to our infrastructure such as the pan- Lanarkshire orbital road, which are central to creating connected communities that are supported by greenspaces and active travel networks. There are so many exciting projects underway that will help to create our vision for North Lanarkshire. Take a look at our latest progress.

We’ve introduced a Development Pathfinder scheme in support of our new build programme, allowing us to work with housing developers to buy new ‘off the shelf’ homes. Initially, four towns were selected as part of a pilot and we’re currently considering potential projects to deliver over 300 homes. It’s been agreed to extend this scheme to include all areas in North Lanarkshire with every site being assessed on its merits.
