Our Johnstone
This plan sets out an ambitious vision for the future of Johnstone Town Centre. It identifies a range of actions and key projects which have been developed in response to the ambitions of local residents, businesses and key stakeholders as well as national policies guiding the future of our town centres. The plan supports the sustainable growth of the town centre, ensuring that it evolves as a diverse, sustainable and thriving place for the local community and settlements across West Renfrewshire. The vision offers an opportunity to shape a Johnstone town centre which is fit for the future – a town centre which is vibrant, sustainable, connected, green and resilient.
Project Approach
Renfrewshire Council and a specialist consultant team worked together with local residents, businesses and community groups to develop the plan. This included an informal ‘drop in’ event, online survey, visits to local schools and one to one meetings with local stakeholders and community organisations. Around 1800 people contributed their views and ideas, which have informed a series of key principles and actions.
