Councillors To Consider Dundee Waterfront Plans

A tender for multi-million pound plans at Dundee Waterfront is set to go before a committee early next week.

Morgan Sindall has agreed to deliver over £6 million worth of work to create Waterfront Place adjacent to the V&A Dundee.

Councillors on the city development committee will be asked to approve this tender at a meeting on Monday 09 December.

Mark Flynn deputy convener of Dundee City Council's city development committee said: "This is a very high profile and tangible piece of the waterfront development jigsaw that will be in place by spring of 2021.


"It will offer an interesting and innovative space right next to the estuary for the people of the city and visitors of all ages to use for leisure activities.

"This represents the next element of phased and planned development at the waterfront and I am confident that it will continue in the months and years ahead."

If approved, work on the scheme could start in early 2020, comprising the construction of hard and soft landscaping areas, an urban beach, decorative water feature and a new active travel/low carbon hub building. It is expected to take around 18 months to complete.
