Broomhill and Thornwood Restricted Parking Zone (RPZ).
JCC is in consultation with local community councils to consider the RPZ introduction. Currently JH is not part of this proposal but we fully expect to see vehicle parking to worsen in JH following the RPZ introduction. Discussions are at a very early stage but it is hoped, with the assistance of our local City Councillors, that we will open discussions with City Officials for the surrounding areas.
Currently, the view is the risk to JH is small although additional parking is likely in streets close to the proposed RPZ but also near public transport points, eg JH station and bus stops.
Commonwealth Games 2026 and JCC Involvement
JCC, through its membership of Victoria Park Community Trust (VPCT), is planning a large event in Victoria Park this summer on 31st July and 1st August. The CG have just closed a funding application and VPCT has applied for a grant of £10,000.
The VPCT Games proposal is a 2 day event of music, culture and sport being held in the area just inside the park at the Victorian gates on Victoria Park Drive North. Unfortunately, we cannot advise the detail of the event as the funding has still to be decided, a reduced fund will create a reduced event.
Separately, JCC is meeting CG to discuss their Travel Plan with the implications on local streets including south JH.
We expect to be updating JH residents in the coming weeks.

Victoria Park Area Partnership
Jordanhill district is located in the Victoria Park electoral ward along with Whiteinch, Broomhill and Thornwood. The Area Partnership is a Glasgow City Council (GCC) forum where the Community Councils and local City Councillors, within each Ward, come together every three month or so to discuss local issues and to hear presentations from the Police, Fire Brigade and relevant GCC department officials. One important role the Area Partnership has is to award grants to local groups to help fund schemes for local residents.
