The benefits

The regeneration of Irvine Bay is set to bring inward investment and strong economic growth to the coastal towns of North Ayrshire, creating vibrant communities, new job opportunities and a high quality of life in this attractive area of Scotland. 

Regeneration will bring:

• physical improvements to the town centres of each of the 5 towns
• leisure and tourism developments
• new homes
• better business accommodation, attracting jobs into the area
• development of pathways and facilities along the coast

Irvine Bay is full of potential. As regeneration takes hold the whole area will become a more attractive place to live and work. New housing developments and improved town centres with good quality shops and restaurants will attract both visitors and locals. New business facilities will be developed to encourage businesses to locate here. It’s close to Glasgow and has excellent transport links, so people can come and go from the city easily.
