Weekly Road Report Main Header


Planned road closures and restrictions are necessary to allow for a variety of maintenance work including resurfacing, water mains renewal, electricity/gas supply work, sewer maintenance etc etc.

It may be that the Dundee City Council is not responsible for these works. However we have a duty to inform the public of any situation which may arise - planned or otherwise - that may affect their ability to move about the city. We have included here a listing of road closures/restrictions and the contact numbers for the main utilities in case you have a query on any specific set of roadworks.
