There is also a fantastic view of Kengo Kuma’s V & A Museum of Design to the west on the waterfront, and Broughty Ferry Castle can be seen to the east. When walking to Fife, a white lighthouse, known as the High Light, or Tayport West Light, is located on the southern shore of the Tay. It is a private lighthouse operated and constructed by the city of Dundee and is still active today. Safety Advice Pedestrians and cyclists must be aware that the central walkway is shared use. Cyclists must give way to pedestrians at all times. It is noisy on the bridge even in nice weather and pedestrians cannot always hear you approaching. Cyclists please be prepared to slow down and stop if necessary. Design by Communications DCC KL/6/17 Communications Design by.
