When Kingsway Circus at Strathmartine Road was built the Kingsway it was the bypass of Dundee not the main road from Glasgow and Edinburgh to Aberdeen.
Trams used to sit in the middle of the Kingsway Circus at Strathmartine Road.

I thought you classed yourself in the 50 / 60 age bracket? If you can remember trams on the Kingsway Circus you must be a good bit older than 60.

I go that way at busy times, the queue can be a bit much on Strathie.


And there are no concrete blocks waiting to jump out on you either.

Islay, no matter where they go supporters' buses will need to negotiate traffic lights, circles (roundabouts to you) and other traffic. They have no divine right to free and uninterrupted journeys to or from a football match.

Just because you see something as a problem it doesn't mean it is a problem or that there isn't a solution.

If they can do it in Perth,albeit really badly,they can do it in dundee....

Bypass now runs thru middle of the town.

Queen's funeral the guy said the sparsely populated north of the Kingsway ....no sure but I'd hazard a guess most of the population lives north of the Kingsway.

It's lucky old Betty's funeral cortege didn't have to turn left onto Strathie Road off Kingsway. The death toll might've been horrendous.

Correct as Strathmartine Road was closed and members of the public were standing where it joins the Kingsway Circus to get a better view.
