Today I attended the opening ceremony of the Douglas Terrace walkway following the completion of the final 300 metre section between Grassy Beach and Douglas Terrace.
This was the culmination of a decade long project which has seen about £3 million spent on improvement works over that time, funded by Dundee City Council, the Scottish Government and the sustainable transport charity Sustrans.
As the councillor for the former West Ferry ward I regularly highlighted concerns about the condition of the old elevated concrete walkway and I was delighted when it was decided that upgrading this route was a worthwhile project. As each section has been completed it has become busier and people now really enjoy walking and cycling on it.
