Scottish construction firm The JR Group is celebrating reaching significant milestones in the development of three of its housing projects.

The trio of projects will see 158 new homes being delivered on behalf of Link Group across Cambuslang, Paisley and Coatbridge, and with construction set to heat up over the coming months, the JR Group expects to have all three handed over to the housing group by the end of Summer 2021.

The JR Group has made strong progress in the construction of 86 homes – which will be available for rent or shared equity – in Bridge Street, Cambuslang.


Set across 10 apartment blocks, the development of affordable homes includes one- and- two-bedroom flats, of four and six storeys, along with a range of two- and- three-bedroom terraced and semi-detached houses.

The Paisley-based construction group has also made good progress at a key development in Amochrie Road, Paisley, involving the development of 36 new flats at the site of the former Foxbar pub.

The JR Group purchased the bar with the aim of breathing new life into the area, which was being negatively impacted by the presence of the unused building. The site is now being transformed into new housing which will consist of three, three-storey blocks of 12 flats.

It is also full steam ahead for delivering an exciting project in Laxford Place, Coatbridge, which will result in the delivery of 18 new houses and 18 flats – bringing a welcome boost to the local housing need.
