A92 improvements as part of the Arbroath A Place For Everyone project
Works continue to progress well, with significant project milestones achieved through the early summer months. The new widened carriageway has been largely constructed between Tutties Neuk and the Marina, and between Lordburn and Guthrie Port. Works are now progressing at Millgate Loan (west) and East Grimsby junctions. Significant changes to Guthrie Port Roundabout have taken place, with the old roundabout and approach islands removed, with the phased construction of the new configuration well under way.
Looking forward as we head into Autumn the works will continue at pace and traffic management phasing will be changing to facilitate the works. These changes may affect travel times along the A92 through Arbroath. The changes will be as follows:
Marina to Lordburn Roundabout: Early Sept ‘24
Northbound and southbound lane two (offside) closures will be implemented in early September, with access maintained to existing junctions and accesses. This will allow widening of the current northbound carriageway by realigning the lane two kerb line into the current central reserve.
Guthrie Port Roundabout temporary traffic signals: Aug ’24 – Sept ’24
A three-way temporary traffic signal control will be implemented on Guthrie Port Roundabout. It is anticipated these lights will be in place, Monday to Friday in weeks commencing 26th August and 2nd September. A road closure will also be in place on Grant Road between Westhaven Gardens and Wardmill Road. This is to improve safety at the junction of Grant Road and Guthrie Port when the lights are in place.
Every effort is being made to minimise disruption during the use of temporary traffic signals, but you should allow extra time for journeys.
Safety and minimising disturbance is our priority
During construction, pedestrian and traffic management measures will be in place to make sure the work can be carried out safely for residents, businesses and our workers.
Safety zones will be in place between passing vehicles and construction plant and operatives. This will be done through standard traffic management set ups and while we appreciate the work will be disruptive, we will strive to keep traffic flowing as much as is possible. However, it is advised that you allow extra time for journeys.
