Private-Sector Investments in Clyde Gateway

Clyde Gateway East

Clyde Gateway East is a new business park on a long-derelict and brownfield site extending to 14.6 hectare (36 acre) site at a location some 4 miles south-east of Glasgow city centre.

It is being delivered as part of a development joint venture with experienced real estate developers MEPC and SCOT Sheridan.

Following completion of the M74 and installation of extensive site infrastructure, Clyde Gateway East is the newest and best connected business park in Scotland.  It will provide a sustainable, high quality environment to support growing businesses while delivering community benefits.

The masterplan for the 14.6 hectare site provides for up to just under 40,000 square metres of business space and has planning consent for business (Class 4), general industrial (Class 5) and storage and distribution (Class 6) uses.

Overall, the private sector is committing up to £14m of private sector investment that will bring up to 1,000 jobs to a site that has lain vacant and derelict for around 40 years.

More information on Clyde Gateway East can be found under the Development Opportunities section of our website.
