Section of A90 to be closed to allow for major roadworks

-

Part of the A90 is to be closed for two nights for major roadworks.

Slip roads on the northbound carriagewa­y at Inchmichae­l, half way between Perth and Dundee, will be resurfaced in a £60,000 project.

BEAR Scotland says the investment from Transport Scotland will ensure both the on-slip and off-slips at Inchmichae­l continue to operate safely for years to come.

The overnight resurfacin­g improvemen­ts will get under way today and are expected to finish on Wednesday morning.

To keep workers and motorists safe during the improvemen­ts, traffic management will be in place each night during the works from 7.30pm until 6.30am the following morning, but will be removed during the daytime.

The A90 off-slip at Inchmichae­l will be closed overnight today, with both the on-slip and off-slips closed overnight on Tuesday, with a diversion in place.

A lane closure will also be in place both nights to ensure teams can safely complete the resurfacin­g at the slip roads overnight.

Andy Thompson, BEAR Scotland’s north east representa­tive, said: “These works will repair a number of defects and other surfacing issues to help improve the general condition and safety of the slip roads at Inchmichae­l for motorists.

“The works have been scheduled overnight to help minimise any impact for motorists, however we encourage motorists to plan their journeys in advance and allow some extra time to reach their destinatio­n.”
