Dundee, Tayside, Scotland, UK, February 29th 2016: A review into the £80m price tag of Dundee's V&A museum has concluded that the way the costs were estimated was not "sufficiently robust" to address the building's "unique challenges". The independent review also stated that more frequent and direct reporting to councilors "would have been helpful". The cost of the project had previously been estimated at £45m. © Dundee Photographics / Alamy Live News.

The project to build the V&A Museum of Design Dundee has taken a major step forward with the signing of the construction contract between Dundee City Council and BAM Construction Ltd. Work on site is progressing under the £ million project, with the main building completed by the end of 2017 and will be opened to the public before June 2018. Completion of V&A Dundee will help create hundreds of jobs and inject millions of pounds into the economy.
