OVERNIGHT INVESTIGATIONS PLANNED FOR A90 KINGS CROSS INTERCHANGE AND COUPAR ANGUS INTERCHANGE IN DUNDEE

October 5, 2021

Works to start Wednesday 6 October for two nights

  • Single lane closure on both the northbound and southbound carriageways required for safety

 

An essential project on the A90 below the Kings Cross Interchange and Coupar Angus Interchange is set to take place from Wednesday.

The overnight project will involve teams carrying out investigations of the safety barriers on the northbound and southbound carriageways below the A90 Kings Cross Interchange and A90 Coupar Angus Interchange. It is crucial that these investigations are carried out to allow teams to establish the extent of upgrade work required for future works.

The project is scheduled to begin on Wednesday 8 October and will take place between 7.30pm and 6.30am across two nights.

To ensure the safety of the workforce and motorists, a single lane closure will be in place on the southbound and northbound carriageway. All traffic management will be removed during the daytime.

Ian Stewart, BEAR Scotland’s North East Representative said: “These essential investigations will allow our teams to assess the extent of repairs required for the safety barriers below the Kings Cross Interchange and Coupar Angus Interchange in Dundee.

“We’ve taken steps to minimise disruption for motorists as much as possible during the project, including carrying out the works overnight and removing the traffic management outwith working hours.

“We thank motorists for their patience in advance while our teams carry out these essential investigations on the A90. We encourage road users to plan their journeys in advance by checking the Traffic Scotland website for up to date traffic information and allow some extra time to reach their destination.”
