A jack-knifed lorry caused long tailbacks on the A90 towards Forfar following heavy snowfall in the area.
Police confirmed officers were in attendance on the A90 near Finavon, where the vehicle was blocking the road.
They were called to the scene at 9.45am on Friday, as Storm Eunice wreaked havoc with local transport.

The southbound lane had reopened by 12.30pm, but Traffic Scotland still warned of delays lasting around 20 minutes.
The road was fully cleared with both lanes running by 1.20pm.
