The City Deal was developed by officers from the eight participating member authorities in Glasgow City Region and other local partner organisations. The programme of 27 projects is spread over three themes:
Infrastructure, Skills & Employment and Innovation and Business Growth.
The £1.13 billion infrastructure fund will deliver 21 projects focusing on improving connectivity and unlocking new sites across the Region for commercial, housing and retail development.
A further three innovation projects have been supported by £18.7 million funding from the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) and three employment projects are funded to £24.6 million through contributions from the Department for Work and Pensions and the Member Authorities.
Together these City Deal projects will enable a programme of work which will greatly add to the value of the local economy over the next 20 years.
Further information on projects can be found in the individual Member Authority pages under the Partner section.
