Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Dock Street Tunnel strengthening When the railway bridge across the "silv'ry Tay" was opened on 1 June 1878, there was little space between the city centre and the riverside docks through which to take the line. So it dropped steeply down into the new Tay Bridge station in a stone-walled cutting and immediately left through a cut-and-cover tunnel beneath Commercial Street and Dock Street before climbing steeply up to the Arbroath line at Camperdown Junction. In 2007, the increasing weight of road traffic necessitated the tunnel roof being strengthened and here the view is along the top of the newly concreted roof. The viaduct to the left is an approach to the Tay Road Bridge and the tall derelict building was Tayside House, the former headquarters of Tayside Regional Council. |
