Communication
In 1998, the Dundee Partnership decided to look at the potential options for re-integrating the Waterfront with the city centre with a 30 year Masterplan. An initial Consultants Report by EDAW in January 2000 identified a number of visionary development options for the Waterfront. This followed with a number of public consultations and final Masterplan was agreed during 2001. The main components include: |
• the extension of the city centre down to the waterfront
• the creation of a new grid iron street pattern
• improved provision for walking, cycling and buses
• the reduction of the effects of cars and parking
• the removal of some of the Tay Road Bridge ramps
• the creation of east/west tree lined boulevards
• provision of sites for a variety of mixed use developments
• the formation of a major new civic space and re-opened dock
• the provision of a new rail station and arrival square
|
The Masterplan is now built into the review of the Dundee Local Plan which gives it a formal status as a planning document. Cities Growth Fund money has been awarded to the project by the Scottish Executive to assist with the infrastructure costs.
