Rosebery Street

Road safety – Rosebery Street/Cleghorn Street junction #dundeewestend

The City Council is to shortly consult on the Dundee City Council (Variation of Waiting Restrictions) Order 2021.

This covers proposed changes to waiting restrictions at various locations across the city and will include a proposal to introduce “No Waiting at any time” on the four corners of the Rosebery Street/Cleghorn Street junction.

Given the concerns raised by residents about some vehicles parking right at the junction and affecting sight lines, this is a sensible move, although the proposal will be subject to consultation.

Getting things done – graffiti removal – Rosebery Street, Pitfour Street and Benvie Road

Following residents’ complaints about graffiti requiring removal in Rosebery Street, Pitfour Street and Benvie Road (see below), I raised this with the City Council’s Rapid Response Team :

 

I have now been advised that disclaimers have been given to the property owners concerned to get their authority to allow the council to remove the graffiti (permission required as on privately-owned walls).

Getting things done … Baxter Street and Rosebery Street

Residents have brought to my attention the mass of graffiti on the empty shop unit at the corner of Rosebery Street and Baxter Street – see right.
 
I have raised this with the City Council’s Rapid Response Unit asking that the graffiti be removed.
 
As this is not the first time there have been a graffiti issue at this location, I have asked if repainting the corner  in anti-graffiti paint may be possible.  
 
We have seen a significant improvement in the past year in terms of stamping out graffiti in the West End and it is important that all instances of graffiti are removed as soon as they appear.
