The A90 has been reopened between Dundee and Perth following two crashes near St Madoes.

The road was blocked southbound at St Madoes due to a two-vehicle crash, while another collision nearby caused another one-lane block, also on the southbound carriageway.

The two-vehicle collision happened shortly after 6.30am on Thursday.

Police and an ambulance also attended the scene but details of injuries are unknown,

The second crash, at the junction to the B953 to Inchture, has now been cleared.

Traffic Scotland previously warned of 25-minute delays after the road was reopened, however Google Maps data now shows traffic on the dual carriageway is flowing normally.
