Broken-down vehicle causing 35-minute delays on A90 between Dundee and Perth

A broken-down vehicle caused long tailbacks on the A90 between Perth and Dundee on Friday.

According to Google Maps traffic data at 4.30pm, southbound queues nearly reached the Inchmichael Junction.

Meanwhile, northbound tailbacks extended to the Friarton Bridge.

At 3.40pm Traffic Scotland said: “A broken down vehicle is partially blocking the A90 Southbound at Glencarse.

“It is affecting traffic in both directions, recovery is also proving tricky.”

One northbound driver said: “Traffic from Perth heading towards Dundee is tailed back over Friarton bridge.

“It’s moving but very, very slow.

“[It’s] taken 35 mins to get to Kinfauns flyover from the bridge. ”

It comes days after work to repair the Glencarse overbridge started.

Set to last for 10 weeks, the works will involve lane closures and contraflows.
