Weekly Road Report – West End Ward #dundeewestend


DUNDEE CITY COUNCIL - WEEKLY ROAD REPORT

REPORT FOR THE WEST END WARD - SATURDAY 5 AND SUNDAY 6 JULY 2025

Strawberrybank (at Perth Road) – closed for one week for Scottish Water work.

[Note from Fraser and Michael – we have queried this as we are aware of what appears to be Scottish Water emergency work but residents are asking the need for this length of closure as there was no work on-site parts of Thursday and Friday.    Scottish Water has advised it will prioritise the work today - sett reinstatement - and hopefully the closure will therefore be lifted soon.]

REPORT FOR THE WEST END WARD - WEEK COMMENCING MONDAY 7 JULY 2025

Blinshall Street (Douglas Street to 50 metres south) - closed until August 2025 for construction works.

Douglas Street (Blinshall Street to Brown Street) - temporary traffic lights until August 2025 for construction works.

Scottish and Southern Energy Networks Elmwood Cable Renewal Scheme - temporary traffic lights and road closure from Tuesday 4 March for 19 weeks insofar as it affects the West End Ward :

  • Ancrum Road (at Peel Street) – temporary traffic lights for 5 weeks; and
  • Tullideph Road (City Road to Greenbank Place) – closed westbound for 6 weeks.

[Note from Fraser and Michael – the road report information is provided by the City Council. We queried the over-run of this project and the lights on Ancrum Road and westbound closure on Tullideph Road. This has been caused we understand by issues between SSEN and its contractor over the jointing phase of the work.   Please see our latest update about the delays at http://tiny.cc/Ancrum-Tullideph which indicate the work will not be completed until 10th to 17th August.]
