Not claiming this is going to be delivered quickly, but it is at least promising that Glasgow City Council is working on a River Strategy to dramatically improve the embankments on both sides of the river, from Glasgow Green down to Patrick.

It overlaps with a few already-existing projects, which are only now getting up and running, like the Clyde Street and South Portland Street 'Avenue' designs, and a rebuild of Windmillcroft Quay complete with walking & footpaths.

The continued problem is that the further east you go, from Broomielaw onwards basically, all the land is privately owned by Peel Ports. And so any developments happen largely at their whim. The council is at least getting organised in what it is asking for though, and seems to be working with the land owners on some good plans.

There's a lot of good stuff in the pipeline. Being delivered at a snail's pace, but it is there.

Keep an eye out for news on this.
