Road Closure: A90 — Dundee

The A90 Kingsway in Dundee is currently closed in both directions due to essential roadworks, which commenced on 31 July 2026 at 19:15. The closure is expected to cause significant disruptions to traffic in the area, and drivers are advised to plan their journeys accordingly. Traffic Scotland, the highway authority responsible for managing the road network in Scotland, is overseeing the roadworks and has implemented the closure to ensure the safety of road users.

The roadworks are part of a larger effort to manage the road and carriageway, and while the closure may cause inconvenience to drivers, it is essential to maintain the integrity of the road infrastructure. The A90 is a major route that connects Dundee to other parts of Scotland, and the closure will likely affect commuters, businesses, and other road users. Drivers are advised to seek alternative routes to avoid the closure, and to check traffic apps and websites for the latest updates on traffic conditions.

Traffic Scotland is working to minimize the disruption caused by the closure, and drivers can expect to see diversion signs and traffic management measures in place to guide them through the area. However, drivers are still advised to allow extra time for their journeys and to be patient when navigating the diversion routes. The closure is classified as medium severity, which means that it is expected to cause significant disruptions to traffic, but alternative routes are available to mitigate the impact.

Drivers can use traffic apps such as Google Maps or Waze to get the latest updates on traffic conditions and to plan their routes accordingly. These apps can provide real-time information on traffic congestion, road closures, and diversion routes, helping drivers to avoid the busiest areas and minimize delays. Additionally, Traffic Scotland's website and social media channels provide up-to-date information on roadworks and traffic management measures, which can help drivers to plan their journeys and stay informed about any disruptions.
