MORE than 300 new homes are to get water and sewer upgrades.

Scottish Water plans to improve services for properties being built in Renton, West Dunbartonshire, by Cordale Housing Association.

The move follows the creation of a dedicated team dealing with development issues and water provision.

Graham Martin, of Scottish Water, said: "We are working to ensure vital affordable housing can be built by providing future residents with a robust water and waste water infrastructure."
