The Kirkintilloch Initiative is an umbrella organisation overseeing the implementation of a number of projects across the town, each aiming aim to improve amenity.

An Arts and Cultural Centre from Page & Park, part funded by the Scottish Arts Council, is to be the schemes new centrepiece.  The centre provides theatre and studio space alongside bar and restaurant facilities to assume real civic importance.  The site augments Southbank Marina from The Miller Partnership which is being transformed into a business and leisure park by provision of office space and a footbridge that connects both banks of the canal. 

Facilitating the success of these developments will be enhanced connections to boost accessibility.  A new link road will connect the town to the motorway network and a series of pedestrian and cycle routes will be created open up areas in and around Kirkintilloch to leisure traffic.
