THE views of the public are being sought ahead of the latest stage of a £14 million investment in Irvine.

At the beginning of this year, work got underway on a major regeneration project for Irvine Harbourside.

The Great Harbour programme is a key component of the £251m Ayrshire Growth Deal and has been described by North Ayrshire Council as one of the most ambitious and transformational regeneration tourism proposals for the region.

With this in mind, the authority have been seeking community feedback on plans for the latest phase of work on the 'maritime mile'.

Two public drop-ins have already been held, with two more scheduled to take place on Wednesday, October 8.

These will take held at the Rivergate Shopping Centre from 12-3pm, and at Fullerton ConneXions from 5-7pm.

Those unable to attend can also submit comments online via a survey - available here.

A North Ayrshire Council spokesperson said: "The maritime mile will develop Irvine Harbourside and Beach Park as an attractive destination for visitors and the local community.

"It is part of the Great Harbour Programme to regenerate the area as a great place to live, work, play and visit.

"Proposals for the programme, which is funded by £14M investment through the Ayrshire Growth Deal, were first shared with the local community in 2023."
