Land and soil in Edinburgh and Glasgow can easily become contaminated with asbestos

Glasgow and Edinburgh are two of the most populous and fascinating cities in Scotland and the wider UK. Both cities are economic and cultural powerhouses, boasting instantly recognisable architectural landmarks ranging from the Glasgow Tower and the Clyde Arc to the Dugald Stewart Monument, Edinburgh Castle, and the Scottish Parliament Building.

Far from being “museumised”, Edinburgh and Glasgow are very much “living” cities, and there has been much change in their respective cityscapes through the generations. Over the course of the 20^th century, however, asbestos was widely used in the construction of residential, commercial, and public structures alike, including in these parts of Scotland.

As the years have passed, older buildings have been demolished, and new ones have been erected in their place. In the process, though, the demolition process may have left asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) – such as asbestos cement roof sheeting, asbestos insulation, and/or asbestos textured coatings – buried in the ground at certain sites.

With asbestos being a notorious and now-outlawed carcinogen, these loose fibres could pose health risks if they are left unmanaged. So, site managers and other stakeholders need to be alert to the possibility that land for which they are responsible could contain asbestos. This can occur not only on brownfield sites in Scotland, but also greenfield ones – for example, if waste disposal activities formerly took place at the given location.
