Temporary Road Closure as Strathern Road is Resurfaced

Starting on Monday 5 September for up to two weeks, there will be temporary closure of Strathern Road in The Ferry. There will be diversions in place and pedestrian access will be maintained for residents. 


Drivers should expect delays on Dundee Road and Arbroath Road as traffic from Strathern Road is diverted into those routes in and out of Dundee.


Deep ruts can be clearly seen on the north edge of Strathern Road close to the bus stop. This is most probably caused by the weight of buses waiting at the stop. It's potholes like this that will be fixed when this road is resurfaced.

Road Safety Improvements Due for Busy Road Junction in The Ferry

At the meeting of the City Development Committee on Monday 27 June, road safety was one of the matters considered. It was agreed that in Broughty Ferry, improvements to the busy and accident prone junction between Fairfield Road and Strathern Road would be targeted. Road users and residents can expect changes to be introduced during the coming year. 


This will be welcome news for pedestrians and drivers alike who find this a tricky junction to negotiate at peak traffic times; especially traffic movements from Fairfield Road joining or crossing Strathern Road.
