Working with Glasgow City Council, Arcadis and Collective Architecture will be holding a series of events in your neighbourhood and communities over the next few months to explore Liveable Neighbourhoods.
Liveable Neighbourhoods (LN) is Glasgow’s approach to blending the 20-minute neighbourhood concept with the place principle. Glasgow City Council will work with and enable communities to improve their areas through the formation of Liveable Neighbourhood Plans. Glasgow’s Liveable Neighbourhoods will be accessible and healthy places that allow people, of all ages and abilities, out to play and socialise in their local area. Neighbourhoods should perform in such a way that maximises the social, economic and environmental benefits of the area through interventions that improve localities and place and help to reduce the city’s dependency on cars by making walking, cycling and public transport first choice.

Tranche 3 of the Liveable Neighbourhoods programme has now reached your local community, with Ruchazie to Easterhouse covering the neighbourhoods of Ruchazie, Garthamlock and Easterhouse. Through our upcoming engagement activities, you and your communities can tell us what works well, what could be better, and how the Liveable Neighbourhoods project can support your community.
