Westfield Place & Riverside Approach

Following constituent's concern have been back onto the Planning & Transportation Department about a couple of issues in Westfield Place :
  • Need for road to be property reinstated (ie setts replaced - currently just temporary tar) where Scottish & Southern Electric undertook a repair some months ago. I raised this originally in May or thereabouts & have now asked P&T Department to chase up Scottish & Southern.
  • Need for a "No Heavy Vehicles" sign in this very narrow street - P&T promised me this & they have now said they'll chase up Tayside Contracts to get it done ASAP.

Following blog yesterday, was pleased to hear from Network Rail this morning - they hope to get the ugly blue boards in Riverside Approach replaced by end of August if possible. They've agreed to meet me and reps from West End Community Council again later this month on-site so we can choose replacement fencing. It will still be of a temporary style pending the completion of the long-term works on the rail bridge, but hopefully a lot less unsightly than what's there at the moment! Meantime, Network Rail has painted out the graffiti on the boards.
