Construction News Image
Proposals for a major investment in cycling and walking routes in Dundee have progressed following a successful consultation.

The Northern Links projects aim to introduce routes in Lochee Road, Victoria Road and Princes Street/King Street.

Dundee City Council has now moved to the next stage, developing more refined proposals along with visual representations of the future layouts.

Cllr Kevin Cordell, Dundee City Council's cycling spokesperson said: "The visual representation of what a segregated cycleway on Lochee Road might look like really brings home how our streets could be set up to encourage more active forms of travel.

"Getting more people to use their bikes for commuting and short journeys around the city would be good for all of us."

The designs can be accessed at dundeenorthernlinks.com, by email, or at one of the upcoming engagement events.

The council is on course to submit draft proposals to Sustrans by the end of April.
