Local Priority being addressed:  Urban improvements incorporating environmental seating and shelters

Installation of Drop Kerbs in Central Stobswell We plan to install Drop Kerbs in four locations in Central Stobswell. Drop Kerbs lower the standard paving height to road level to allow a smooth transition across the road from the walkway. This allows people with disabilities, the elderly and those using mobility vehicles & wheelchairs easier access across road in the local area. By installing additional Drop Kerbs we will be promoting compliance with the Disability Discrimination Act of 1995 and the Equality Act of 2010 by making reasonable adjustments to infrastructure to accommodate those with disabilities.

Installation sites are: Process St (Doctors Surgery) DD4 6DG, Dundonald St (Police Station) DD4 6SS, Dykehead Place/Ogivie St DD4 6SE, Process St (Doctors Surgery) DD4 6DG, Dundonald St (Police Station) DD4 6SS, Dykehead Place/Ogivie St DD4 6SE Dundonald Street Manhattan Works DD3 7PY

There has been extensive engagement and consultations over the first half of 2025 led by the Dundee City Council Maryfield Empowerment Team. Through those discussions local residents have made their desire to see additional Drop Kerbs installed in Central Stobswell clear.
