Plans to install flood protection measures along a section of the coastline in Dundee are to go on display next week.

The designs will highlight how potential flood waters could be held back at City Quay, between Discovery Point and Dundee Airport.

The open 'drop-in' sessions will take place on Tuesday 13 January from 2pm to 5pm at Discovery Point, as well as Wednesday 14 January from 2pm to 8pm at the Apex Hotel.


Council officers will be in attendance to discuss the plans and listen to comments received.

Will Dawson, Convener of Dundee City Council's City Development Committee, said: "We finished a coastal flood study in August 2013 and it recommended various protection measures along the full length of the city's coastline.

"Since then officers have been working to develop proposals which are now being brought forward for consultation with all interested parties.

"I would urge people who live and work at or close to any of the areas where flooding could happen to take part in this consultation and make their views known to help inform any protection scheme that is ultimately created."
