For some considerable time, much of the area of Dundee Technopole south of Blackness Road, immediately east of Annfield Road, has remained undeveloped. Residents in the area have queried why this is the case and if the City Council is actively marketing the unused the unoccupied parts of the site.
The City Council's Head of Economic Development advises:
"With the economy now picking up albeit slowly, there has been no firm interest in the sites at the Technopole, though we continue to show it to relevant potential investors.
The overall demand for land remains low. There is therefore still no evidence that the use conditions are hampering development and the route of seeking dispensation for any non compliant use that does appear remains valid."
