LOL. The snow and ice on the main roads within Dundee needed to be cleared, the problem was that the Dundee city council took 10 days to figure out where to put it once it had been cleared and transported. The snow quickly piled up at Blackscroft in the city centre after being transported there by truck (a stones throw from the entrance to Victoria Dock). Apparently, the story goes it took Dundee Council 10 days to finally allow the snow and ice to be dumped into the river Tay. Apparently the contractors had to gain permission from the City Council for the snow and ice, which was contaminated with salt, sand and grit so as not to create an environmental catastrophe within the river. Apparently no one was willing to stand up and take responsibility for the decision and no-one had the common sense to realise that there was already large amounts of salt and sand already in the river.

There was quite a funny scene in the town centre last week though as a single Dundee Council worker was observed working, cleaning up the cigarette butts from the ice covered pavements as folks looked on in disgust.

The twats at the Dundee city council have a long history of corrupt incompetence and total indifference to their constituents, being more concerned with V&A museums and waterfront developments (hopefully to be completed by 2030. ) rather than ending the policy of keeping self gritting roads in place. It took them 6 years to re cobble Albert square, about the same time it took to build Dubai. Time for a Youtube 'Hitler gets bad news' video, I think.
