Glasgow City Council Consults on Active Travel Projects and Baillieston Community Hub

Glasgow City Council is currently consulting on the Yellow Package of the Connecting Greater Govan project. The consultation seeks input on active travel infrastructure and safety measures in Greater Govan. A separate public consultation on the new City Centre Strategy, covering plans up to 2030, is scheduled to run from 20 October to 3 December and will address regeneration, transport and the night-time economy.

These consultations form part of wider work on community services and facilities. Design proposals for the new Baillieston Community Hub were the subject of public engagement in September 2024 at Baillieston Library and online. The project is backed by £14.68 million in council funding. Glasgow City Council also consulted in 2025 on its first Public Toilet Strategy and an updated Gambling Policy Statement, recognising public toilets as an equality and public health issue.

Active travel improvements under consideration

George V Bridge Active Travel Improvements are being delivered to improve access for wheeling, walking and cycling in the George V Bridge and Clyde Street areas. The measures aim to support residents who rely on these routes for daily movement. Input from local people is sought on how the changes may affect journeys to services and workplaces in those neighbourhoods.

Community facilities and service access

The Baillieston Community Hub proposals and the Public Toilet Strategy both relate directly to local service provision. Residents in Baillieston and across the city can respond to the engagement processes already completed or under way. The City Centre Strategy consultation will provide a further opportunity for views on transport links that connect communities to central services and facilities.

Further details on the consultations are available through Glasgow City Council channels. Residents are invited to review the proposals and submit responses during the stated periods where applicable.
