DUNDEE CITY COUNCIL - WEEKLY ROAD REPORT

REPORT FOR THE WEST END WARD - WEEK COMMENCING MONDAY 18 AUGUST 2025

Strawberrybank – closed from Thursday 14 August for one week for Scottish Water work.

[We have had exchanges with a council roads engineer about this and the closure may not be required or only for part of the period].

Scottish and Southern Energy Networks Elmwood Cable Renewal Scheme - temporary traffic lights and road closure from Tuesday 4 March for 19 weeks :

  • Ancrum Road (at Peel Street) – temporary traffic lights until Wednesday 20 August

[We have been advised by SSEN :  “Wood (the contractors) were on track to reinstate and remove the traffic management for Sunday (17/8/25), opening the road up to traffic as promised.   However recent heavy rainfall scuppered their plans..  They will now have to dig out a large portion of the back fill and repeat the reinstatement - we can’t take the risk of the sodden backfill sinking. They now expect to be tarring on Wednesday 20/8/25, road should be open by 21/8/25.]
