CARNOUSTIE LEVEL CROSSING RENEWAL

Work will include replacing the existing two long level crossing barriers with four barriers, enhancement of signalling equipment, and complete renewal of the level crossing surface.

Unfortunately, due to the nature of the work to renew the level crossing surface, the crossing will be closed for two extended periods of time in the coming months and road diversions will be in place.

The crossing will be closed to traffic from the evening of Saturday 9 February until the morning of Monday 18 February, and again from the evening of Saturday 9 March until the morning of Monday 18 March.

The equipment Network Rail uses means some disturbance is unavoidable for those residents close to the level crossing, but it will make every effort to minimise the impact of this work on the local community.

Given the scale of the project, there will be periods when work will be day and night shift. During the weekend line closures, it will be 24-hour continuous working to deliver this very challenging programme. The table below highlights some of the key work dates, impacts and activities.

To enable a wider programme of track enhancements along the line between Dundee and Aberdeen, and for these works to be delivered safely and efficiently, no trains will operate between Dundee and Aberdeen on weekends when the work is taking place. Further information about disruption to train services is available on the ScotRail website.
