Aquascape is a node point between Playscape and Nurturescape, and it will complement nicely the array of habitats developed by Glasgow Roots. The wetland will offer habitat for protected species such as otters and water voles. The latter is adapting on life on land too, however their initial natural habitat is next to water bodies.
"[...] will not just be somewhere to live work and play - it will be where the urban and rural overlap to form a "smart city" that promotes healthy living and food sustainability"

This section of Roots has the main aim of reverse-engineering a portion of the Forth and Clyde canal between Port Dundas and the M8 Motorway and offering a more natural wetland environment.
