Noise monitors for street party

Noise monitors will be in place at two coastal towns to ensure a student party does not disrupt the sleep of locals.

A massive celebration is set to kick off on Perth Road at 8pm on Friday as part of the DJCAD degree show street party.

The festivities will run in conjunction with Dundee University students showcasing their exhibitions which attract thousands of visitors every year.

Last year’s event caused controversy, with residents in Wormit and Newport being woken up by the partying – despite being seven miles across the River Tay.

The music from the party echoed off the water, making a loud noise on the other side of the estuary.

This year student association bosses have moved to limit the disruption for Fife residents.
