Focus of the consultation

The consultation focused on the creation of:

  • an international culture and heritage destination
  • a smart business place
  • a centre for education and innovation
  • a livable, attractive and green place
  • resilient, strong partnerships

Key areas of activity

The Paisley Town Centre Action Plan [1MB] identifies key activity areas to guide short, medium and long term actions. 

The areas are:

  • Gilmour Street Gateway
  • Paisley West End
  • High Street and the University Campus

The next steps are to draw up master plans for individual projects within the action plan.
