Reflecting projects developed over several years, many of which are now progressing from early planning, design, and pre-construction stages into site delivery, the programme will see CCG begin 36 new projects, totalling 2,000 new homes, including approximately 1,650 for affordable rent. 

The new homes, alongside over 800 already under construction, will be developed through long-standing partnerships with local authorities, housing associations and other public-sector clients, alongside a number of private developments, with more than 75% of the work secured through direct procurement.

The scale and breadth of housing delivery reflect both sustained demand for new homes across Scotland and the critical role of experienced delivery partners in meeting national and local housing targets.

Projects within the 2026 pipeline are located across the Central Belt and beyond, including Glasgow, Edinburgh, Lanarkshire, Stirling, Fife, Dumfries & Galloway, East Lothian, West Dunbartonshire, and East Renfrewshire. 

Developments range from large-scale regeneration and placemaking schemes in urban communities to smaller, locally focused projects designed to respond to specific housing needs in towns and rural areas.

A significant proportion of the projects will be led by CCG from conception to completion, through the integration of their specialist pre-construction services with their appointed design teams, while around 1,800 of the new homes will be delivered using CCG’s offsite manufacturing expertise. 

Offsite manufacturing sees entire wall zones fabricated in a semi-automated factory setting before being installed and erected onsite, and is an approach to construction CCG has pioneered in Scotland since 2010. 

Enabling improved quality, a faster speed of build and enhanced energy performance, the ‘iQ’ Timber System product forms part of a wider in-house offering – including windows, doors, M&E, utilities, and plumbing - that work together to address each project’s requirements and ensure greater service for clients, while supporting Scotland’s ambitions to modernise construction and accelerate the transition to net zero.

The 2026 pipeline also represents a substantial opportunity for skills development, employment, and training, both within CCG and across its supply chain. 

The volume of secured work is expected to support roles spanning manufacturing, on-site construction, and professional and technical disciplines, alongside opportunities for apprenticeships, upskilling and long-term employment in communities across the Central Belt and wider Scotland.

David Wylie, managing director at CCG, said: “This pipeline reflects the strength of our partnerships with local authorities, housing associations, and public-sector clients across Scotland, with whom we engage at every stage of a project’s delivery to help turn housing ambitions into reality.

“Many of these projects have been shaped through early engagement over a number of years, and we continue to actively work with partners on schemes that will come forward in the years beyond 2026.

“At its core, delivering new homes goes far beyond bricks and mortar. High-quality, energy-efficient housing plays a critical role in tackling homelessness, reducing fuel poverty, improving health outcomes, and strengthening communities, while also supporting economic growth and long-term resilience.

“As the sector continues to face challenges around capacity, sustainability and planning, collaboration and practical delivery will be key. CCG remains committed to working with our partners to deliver homes at scale that are affordable, sustainable, and designed to improve people’s lives now and for generations to come.”

Alongside its affordable housing programme, CCG’s 2026 pipeline also includes private residential, care and commercial projects.
