Reform Street Dundee

We are carrying out an emergency sewer repair in Reform Street, Dundee.

Following investigations we have identified a collapsed sewer trap on the footpath on Reform Street.

To carry out our repair safely, a full road closure has been in place on Reform Street between Meadowside and Bank Street from Wednesday 15 October 2025.

• There is no vehicle access between Meadowside and Bank Street.
• Alternative access for business deliveries and disabled road users is available via the pedestrian zone at High Street between 4pm and 11am Monday to Saturday, and all day on Sunday.
• The east footpath on Reform Street is closed near the junction with Meadowside, with signage in place to direct pedestrians and confirm that businesses remain open as usual.

We will provide further updates below as we progress with these emergency repairs, and we thank you for your patience and understanding during this time.

Latest Update - Friday 24 October

The damaged pipe is about four metres deep but we have come across a large number of other vital services and utilities that are severely restricting excavation work.

Unfortunately, we are being forced to explore other options to be able to access the sewer by bringing in specialist designers and consultants to develop a solution.

There may be times when there is no visible work happening onsite however technical work will be ongoing in the background.

We are writing to everyone likely to be affected by the road closure and we can reassure them we will work as quickly as possible to complete repairs. We would like to thank them for their patience and understanding.
