The billboards, which wrap around the construction site for the £28m upgrade to the city’s train station, depict different Dundonians discussing the upgrades to the city including a couple, an engineer and a food service worker.

Each were given the makeover with giant googly eyes, which were shared across social media.

Spotted by instagram user Nicola Garrow on Friday morning, the 28-year-old was on her way to work at the train station when she noticed the makeover.

She says: “One of the people had googly eyes on my way into work at 5am but they all had them by the end of my shift .”

She adds: “I’m sure it was done with no mean intent and makes a change from the usual graffiti and vandalism you see sometimes.

“It offered passers by some light hearted fun and put a wee smile on people’s faces, which is always a great thing to see.”
