Date: 
Thursday, 7 June, 2018


Proposals have been publicised for a new supermarket and associated development in Bishopbriggs.

Morrisons has announced its intention to develop a site to the north of railway line, bounded by South Crosshill Road and Kirkintilloch Road – including part of the former Bishopbriggs High School land.

Councillor Billy Hendry, the Council’s Convener of Place, Neighbourhood & Corporate Assets, said, “The development of the former Bishopbriggs High School site has been a long-running aspiration and I will be very interested to see the detailed plans.

“I welcome the commitment from Morrisons to engage with the community on the proposals as they take shape and very much hope that any future development of the site leads to significant investment and the creation of jobs in Bishopbriggs.

“The Council is committed to supporting our town centres – including Bishopbriggs – and is developing long-term strategies for each, including a series of proposed actions for future improvements.”

A Proposal of Application Notice has been lodged with East Dunbartonshire Council.
