Getting things done – City Road #dundeewestend


Many thanks to the residents who reported the fallen tree in City Road to me earlier this week.

I reported this to the forestry team at the City Council to ensure it is removed.

Getting things done – Seabraes #dundeewestend


Many thanks to all the residents who contacted me about the tree damage at Seabraes following the recent Storm Malik.

One tree has sadly been uprooted and another is leaning badly.

I took this up with the City Council’s Head of Environment and have been promised that the department has added Seabraes to the sites where action is required following – initially – Storm Arwen and subsequent high winds.



Proposed Lochee Road/Cleghorn Street road safety improvements – an update #dundeewestend

Residents will recall that some months ago, I gave an update on proposed road safety improvements at the junction of Cleghorn Street and Lochee Road.


Following a number of minor accidents at the junction and my request to the then Director of City Development some time ago to improve safety and tailbacks at the junction, it was agreed to include the junction for a safety audit and implement any resulting improvements recommended.

The council is now are proposing to install a section of central island on Lochee Road adjacent to Cleghorn Street, thus preventing any right hand turning movements into Cleghorn Street heading inbound to city centre. 

Also there will be no right-hand movements out of Cleghorn Street onto Lochee Road inbound to city centre.

I have now been advised that the works should be undertaken in the first half of March and full details will appear on the weekly road report in due course as there will be diversions in place to allow the works to take place at this very busy location.
