Struggling town centres in Scotland are to receive a cash boost of £20million for regeneration projects supporting 320 jobs.
Communities minister Alex Neil has announced 41 high streets will benefit from the Town Centre Regeneration Fund.
Towns in every local authority in Scotland have now benefited from the £60million fund in a bid to create better town centre retail, business, community and leisure facilities.
The Scottish Government allocated £40million in August helping to support almost 1,000 jobs in hard-pressed town centres.
Mr Neil said: "It's vital we support innovative public and private sector companies and community groups to move forward with ideas that will support local jobs, businesses and families.
"This will provide a boost to our nation's prosperity and is part of our wider economic recovery plan to ensure Scotland gets through the economic downturn in the strongest possible position.
"Towns across every region and local authority area in Scotland have now been supported through this fund.”
A wide range of organisations such as Business Improvement Districts (BIDs), town centre managers and local chambers of commerce will use the cash to spruce up shop fronts, upgrade facilities at town halls, theatres, soft play centres and open-air entertainment and market venues.
