Queen Street carriageway resurfacing work

I have received notification that carriageway resurfacing work is programmed to commence at Queen Street between Fort Street and St. Vincent Street on Friday 25 April 2014 and will last for approximately 15 days. The contractor for the works is Tayside Contracts. In the interest of public safety road closures will be implemented between Fort Street and St Vincent Street.

The works will be carried out in three phases to minimise disruption to traffic.

Phase 1:- Queen Street/Fort Street junction will be closed for 3 days from Friday 25 April to Sunday 27 April.

Phase 2:- Queen Street from East of Fort Street junction to St Vincent Street will be closed for a further 5 days from Monday 28 April.  Fort Street junction will be open.

Phase 3:- Queen Street from East of Fort Street junction to St Vincent Street will be closed for another 5 days from Tuesday 6 May, again the Fort Street junction will be open during this phase of the works.

It is proposed to have no road closures in place from Saturday 3 May to Monday 5 May.

During Phase 1 vehicular traffic will be diverted via Victoria Road, Ballinard Road, Balgillo Road, Forthill Road, Nursery Road, Abertay Street and reverse.

During Phases 2 and 3 vehicular traffic will be diverted via Fort Street, Nursery Road, Abertay Street and reverse.

Phase 2 and 3 closures will not be implemented until Phase 1 has been completed.

Pedestrian thoroughfare will be maintained throughout the works.
