WIP - Site Visit & Walking Tour – The Avenues, Glasgow

Join Women in Property Central Scotland and CIVIC for a guided walking tour of key public realm projects within Glasgow city centre, delivered as part of the Glasgow Avenues programme for Glasgow City Council.

The Avenues programme seeks to transform key routes through the city into high-quality, people-focused public spaces, creating a safer and more connected network for walking, wheeling and cycling. The programme supports economic activity, enhances connectivity across the city centre, increases urban greening through new planting, and incorporates sustainable urban drainage systems to improve surface water management.

The tour will be hosted by Civic, who have led the delivery of Block A of the Avenues programme. Sites visited will include the Argyle Street, Cambridge Street and North Hanover Street Avenues projects. The hosts will outline how the programme vision has been translated into design and delivery, and will reflect on the challenges encountered during both the design and construction phases.

As Block A projects are currently at different stages of implementation, the tour will provide insight into Avenues schemes at pre-construction, construction and post-construction stages.
