Storm Update Saturday January 25

Dundee City Council is providing an update on its services on Saturday (Jan 25) following a day of disruption due to Storm Eowyn on Friday. 

Families are being advised that all local authority nursery, primary and secondary schools are preparing to open as normal on Monday January 27.   

Some damage has been reported at Grove Academy which means that the swim and sport centre operated by Leisure & Culture Dundee will remain closed on Saturday and Sunday. 

Work will be carried out over the weekend so that Grove Academy opens on Monday as normal. 

Saturday operating arrangements are in place for Council services and buildings, and council buildings will open as usual on Monday. 

Any changes to the above arrangements will be shared via our social media channels.
