East Renfrewshire: A Connected Network of Climate-Ready Places

The Key Diagram illustrates the Spatial Strategy as a connected network of compact, climate‑ready places across East Renfrewshire. It highlights the relationship between settlements, Growth Areas, infrastructure corridors and the natural environment.

What the diagram shows:

  • Settlement network: the towns and villages that form the basis of the Spatial Strategy.
  • Growth Areas: key locations for development, planned alongside infrastructure.
  • Strategic routes: including the M77, Glasgow Southern Orbital and rail network, supporting movement and connectivity.
  • Green Belt and Rural Areas: defining settlement edges, managing long-term growth and protecting the character and setting of communities.


Symbols are indicative and do not represent precise site boundaries. Detailed allocations and land use designations are set out in the Proposals Map.
