By GlobalDataEast Dunbartonshire Council joint leader and councillor Andrew Polson said, “It’s fantastic to see work taking place on this superb new facility, which will be a first-class addition to our range of sporting assets in East Dunbartonshire. I’m delighted to see the progress being made to bring a previously vacant brownfield site back into viable use.”
The council is funding the £5m scheme, with support from the Scottish Government’s Vacant and Derelict Land Investment Programme.
Robertson Construction Central West regional managing director Andy McLinden said: “East Dunbartonshire Council is showing great commitment to the local community through the provision of these new facilities. As the contractor of choice, we will become a significant part of the community in the coming months as we transform this former brownfield site into a first-class sports complex.”
The sports complex is being created within the Major Works Scotland & Construction Framework provided by public-sector owned procurement specialist SCAPE Scotland.
