New subcontracting opportunities on PCS

One of the UK’s largest infrastructure programmes is now listed on the PCS subcontracting facility and is set to offer a huge range of opportunities for Scottish-based businesses.

The Glasgow and Clyde Valley City Deal will fund major infrastructure projects; create thousands of new jobs and assist thousands of unemployed people back to work; improve public transport / transport infrastructure; drive business innovation and growth through the support of key sectors such as life sciences and generate billions of pounds of private sector investment. This will be delivered through a programme of work which will greatly add to the value of the local economy over the next 20 years.

The City Deal is an agreement between the UK Government, the Scottish Government and eight Local Authorities across Glasgow and the Clyde Valley.

The partnership of eight neighbouring Local Authorities has secured £1.13 billion, the largest City Deal in the UK, which will focus improvement in the Glasgow and the Clyde Valley through 26 projects.     Click here to read more
