City Centre Lighting Survey
24/09/24People are being asked for their opinions in a project to improve lighting across Dundee city centre at night-time.
The city council has appointed consultants Arup to review lighting in the city centre, and also to make recommendations and proposals to enhance the environment for both residents and visitors.
As part of this process, a survey has been launched to gather specific information about key areas and experiences of the city centre.
The council is developing a lighting masterplan as part of its long-term City Centre Strategic Investment Plan in a bid to create a unique and vibrant atmosphere. It was agreed on Monday that the first steps to illuminate the facade of the Caird Hall will go ahead.
Councillor Steven Rome, Fair Work, Economic Growth and Infrastructure convener, said: “Our drive to make Dundee city centre a more attractive place has already seen lights installed in Exchange Street alongside a number of improvements under the City Lights & City Nights concept including external lighting at The McManus.
“This survey will help to inform the development of our lighting masterplan and subsequent proposals. It touches on topics like safety as well as the look of the centre and I would encourage as many people as possible to get involved as we would appreciate their input.”

Responses should be submitted by Friday October 11.
