Some River Clyde Homes are in ‘areas of regeneration’. What does regeneration involve?
For River Clyde Homes, regeneration involves the clearance and demolition of low-demand run-down properties that investment cannot remedy, and replacing with new-build houses, bringing new life to existing communities. Residents of the regeneration areas who will lose their home as a result of demolition will be given the opportunity of either a new build house or moving to an existing River Clyde Homes house. The first regeneration new build areas River Clyde Homes are working on are in the Port Glasgow areas Woodhall, Moray Road and Oronsay and also in Greenock’s East End where ground works have started on the Gilmour Street site ahead of the main build contract. The Building Contractors will be appointed for both Port Glasgow and Greenock East End sites shortly. It is envisaged that these areas will be complete around 2013.
