Last chance to make your choices. The Busby Local Action Plan Survey will close on the 6th of May at mid-day and you can choose what goes in it.
The Busby Local Action Plan is nearly ready!
and you can help choose what goes in it!
This is the final stage in forming a Local Action Plan for Busby. It will identify the options most important to the community to be included in the plan.
The initial consultation was undertaken from 9th May to 20th November 2022 which allowed us to hear about local people’s priorities. You may have participated and given us your ideas which;
- identified the areas in their town you wanted to see improved,
- provided ideas for how that could happen,
- and supported the ideas of others.
We have looked at the many suggestions made and this has allowed us to develop the shortlist in this survey
The priorities options for Busby can be found by clicking here
There are three topics -
- Buildings, meeting and retail spaces
- Green spaces and pathways
- Roads, transportation and active travel
Inside each topic you will find a map with the locations of the different options. Below the map a list of options for each location for you to select.
To select any option you would like to see progress simply click on it in the list. You can choose as many as you like.

Town Centre Regeneration Busby - business breakfast
We want to understand what you want to happen in Busby , so in partnership with Business Gateway East Renfrewshire, we're holding a business breakfast on Wednesday 1 June at 9.30am in the Cartvale.
We want to really understand what is good about the place and how that can be built upon or what areas need redeveloped or just freshened up to improve the area in which you live. We are looking for your ideas, comments and suggestions.
What projects could take place quickly and what may be a more longer term programme of work?
How do we change the way we use public spaces, and how could your suggestions support the development of projects to support activities to offset climate change.
Breakfast and refreshments will be provided.
