A new transport hub to be created outside Dundee railway station including a central bus stance and facilities for taxis and cycle hire has been given a £2m boost.

The cash, which has been allocated by the Scottish Government from European funding, will not be used for refurbishment within the rail station itself.

The new integrated transport hub would see coaches stop outside the railway station for the first time, but it would not mean an end to the city’s Seagate bus terminus.

The purpose of the development is to give commuters an easier way in and out of the city by ensuring that all forms of public transport are available to people as they emerge from trains stopping at Dundee.

The scheme would form part of the central waterfront area that is being redeveloped and that will eventually house the V&A building.

Dundee East MSP Shona Robison said, “We are delighted with this funding, which will assist Dundee to build a better transport network involving all methods of transport.

“It will assist local people to get about the city and to and from Dundee to other places more easily. This will tie-in with the Waterfront redevelopment including the V&A which will be a big draw to the area.”

Councillors were briefed on the project at a meeting in Dundee on Tuesday.
