West End - early 1960s #dundeewestend

With thanks to SJ Bogue and Dundee Memories, a great early 1960s aerial shot of the West End from Perth Road at Seabraes looking west.

The photo was labelled "1950s" but we think it must have been taken from the Tower Building and this did not open until 1961.   We also note the Perth Road tramlines are gone so the photo was clearly taken after 1956 when the tram service ended.

The number of large factory chimneys in the photo show just how much the area has changed over the last 60+ years!

Getting things done - River Crescent #dundeewestend

Many thanks to the residents who contacted us about a bad pothole in River Crescent - see photo.

We therefore reported this to the roads maintenance partnership asking for repairs to be carried out and were thereafter promised that an Order had been raised to ensure this was repaired.

Getting things done - issues around the Seabraes site #dundeewestend

We have recently received concerns from residents regarding the Scottish Enterprise ground at Seabraes - specifically - the fenced off ground where decontamination works took place and Scottish Enterprise is now attempting to resolve groundwater issues has been left unsecured;  also the bins along the path from Roseangle to Greenmarket have not been being serviced efficiently.

We raised this with Scottish Enterprise to request that its agents Colliers dealt with these issues and received the following response :

"I can confirm that Colliers are now addressing the issues you have raised.

By way of an update on the drainage issue, we are working with Network Rail and Tesco to agree an entitlement which will allow SE to access a pipe which may solve the groundwater issues on the site. This, unfortunately is something that may take time, however we are working towards a resolution."

Legacy of the 204 bus service #dundeewestend

At the 2023 council budget, the SNP council administration forced through cuts to council-supported bus services which sadly meant that the 204 service across parts of the West End was axed along with other services including the sheltered housing shopping bus service.

The service ended on 31st March 2024 and although the Liberal Democrat Group budget proposals this year would have restored the service, SNP councillors voted this down 15-5.

Incredibly, more than a year on, the bus timetables at bus stops along the 204 route were still in place a few weeks ago for a non-existent bus service! See photo example at the bus shelter on Magdalen Yard Road near to Step Row/Paton's Lane.

The City Council promised to remove them after our raising this.

We also pointed out that leaving a good conditioned bus shelter for a route with no buses made no sense. Whilst the LibDem Group will continue to campaign to restore the service, this will not happen until the SNP council majority is removed at the 2027 council election.

We also highlighted the bus shelter issue and the senior transport officer has now advised as follows :

"Our team is aware of the redundant bus stop in question.

Due to its size and configuration, it is not suitable for relocation at all sites, as it requires a specific width of footway.

We are actively working on finding suitable sites for relocations across the city."

Inappropriate bus use of Hyndford Street - an update #dundeewestend

Stagecoach recently advised in its website :

"Due to road conditions at Sinderins, Dundee, services 77A and 74C will be temporarily diverted from Monday 24th March until further notice.

Services will be required to divert by continuing along the Perth Road to Hyndford Street, turn right up Hyndford Street to Blackness Avenue, then turning right onto Blackness Avenue and following this onto the Perth Road to then resume normal route."

In our view and the view of residents, the use of narrow and residential Hyndford Street is completely inappropriate.

As one resident told us :

"I am writing to express my concern and opposition to the new bus route that has recently been imposed on Hyndford Street. While I understand the intention behind improving public transport access, I believe this decision is not in the best interest of the residents, particularly those with children and those who rely on the safety and accessibility of our neighbourhood.

My primary concern is the safety of children who play on and use the safe street as a route to school. The addition of a bus route, which will pass through an area already heavily used by cars parking on both sides, delivery vehicles making regular stops, and general residential traffic, significantly increases the risk of accidents. Our street is not only gradually narrowing but it also includes an incline, making it a challenging and hazardous route for large vehicles, especially during peak times.

In addition, there is already an adequate bus service located at both the top and bottom of our street, which provides convenient access for all residents. The service does not even make a stop on our road. This makes the new bus route unnecessary and redundant, especially considering the safety and traffic issues it creates. There has been no consultation with residents about this change, and the impact on our daily lives has not been properly considered.

Given these concerns, I respectfully ask that this decision is reconsidered and explore alternative options that would not compromise the safety or convenience of residents. It would be far more beneficial to focus on enhancing the existing bus services at either end of the street, where access is safer and already well-established."

We raised this matter with Stagecoach and the Commercial Director of Stagecoach East Scotland has advised :

"Thanks for sending these across to me to review, and for raising these concerns.

The 74 route was originally registered to operate from Hawkhill to Perth Road via Sinderins, but unfortunately we have encountered issues with the vehicle grounding at this point, causing damage to buses. The diversion to continue west along Perth Road, Hyndford St then Blackness Ave to Perth Road was therefore created to prevent this issue without a significant increase in time on the route.

I'm sorry to hear that it is causing concern for residents in this area, we will certainly take this feedback on board and review if there is an alternative turning arrangement possible in this area. In the meantime please be assured that our professional drivers are well used to operating in more residential areas, negotiating parked cars and traffic conditions and will take every precaution in this area as they do across our network of services.

I'll endeavour to keep you informed if we are able to make an adjustment to the route in due course."

We are pleased that Stagecoach is reviewing its route but if it is not changed as a result we will raise a formal complaint with the Office Of The Traffic Commissioner for Scotland.

Benvie Road derelict garage site - an update #dundeewestend

Over a protracted period, on behalf of residents, we have raised concerns about the state of the former garage site at the top end of Benvie Road.

Following our numerous concerns being raised with planning officers at the City Council, an amenity notice was served on the site owner, but he has taken no action.

The state of the site has deteriorated further - it is insecure and a fire hazard as the photos show.

As the owner has failed to take action, we asked the council as planning authority to consider direct action to clean-up and secure the site and we are pleased to say officers are now intending to seek committee approval for this to happen.

No ward surgeries tonight #dundeewestend

As the school Easter holidays are currently taking place, please note that our ward surgeries do not take place today.
