Dundee City Council has announced an event to display their plans for the Broughty Ferry flood protection scheme, giving local people the chance to hear about plans to minimise disruption to the marine environment.

The event will offer an opportunity to look at drawings and discuss the project with Dundee City Council engineers on Wednesday 24 July at the Castle Green Pavilion from 10am to 6pm.

The council have chosen construction methods that cut down noise and vibration, and engineers aim to reduce the impact of the scheme on animals and plants in and around the water.

Marine Scotland need to make sure that any vulnerable marine environments are safeguarded through its licensing process.

The consultation will give local people a chance to engage with the upcoming Marine Licence Application, currently in its initial stages.
