Regeneration

The CX Project is a re-focussing of the former Chapelcross nuclear site, developing options for its re-use.

This project brings together five cross-border local authorities to promote economic growth and competitiveness of the area that straddles the Scotland-England border.

We are developing proposals for the expansion of Stranraer Marina, a key element in the regeneration of Stranraer waterfront, and a part of the Borderlands Inclusive Growth Deal.

We aim to bring investment to our region for projects that will meet the council's priorities and ambitions for the regional economy and successfully drive inclusive economic growth and place based regeneration.

This project supports businesses and individuals in Dumfries and Galloway. The work of AIMS is driven by Industry 4.0, which is the ongoing automation of traditional manufacturing and industrial practices using modern technology.

We are delighted with the announcement that we have successfully bid to round two of the UK Government's Levelling Up Fund (LUF).

Dumfries has been selected for funding from the levelling-up programme and will receive £20 million in endowment-style funding over 10 years from 2024-25.
