3.7 Infrastructure includes the City's transport, retail and commercial network as well as services such as schools, waste disposal, water and sewerage. A successful city requires the highest standards of services if it is to support sustained growth. Extensive public and private sector investment in recent years has impacted positively on the quality and range of services in Glasgow.

The Aim for Infrastructure is:
to continue to develop the City's infrastructure to meet the current and future needs of residents, visitors and investors.

The Strategy for Infrastructure involves:
the reduction in the need to travel, particularly by car, by relating land use more directly to transport and the improvement of links between residential and employment areas. In terms of retailing, the Strategy involves sustaining and enhancing the City's retail hierarchy.
