Project Details
Description
Resurfacing works are required to maintain the safety and integrity of a section of the A90 carriageway (southbound) located at Glendoick, Perth and Kinross as the existing carriageway is displaying surface defects such as fretting, and structural defects such as longitudinal cracking and crazing.
Treatment will include inlays ranging from 45mm to 295mm to remove deterioration and reinstate binder layers, with deeper partial reconstructions applied where rutting and joint cracking occur. The scheme will replace the existing pavement with new TS2010 asphalt surface course and AC binder layers to ensure consistency, durability and long-term performance.
Road studs and lining will be replaced as part of the scheme.
The scheme is approximately 1.39 kilometres (km) long, with a total area of approximately 1.25 hectares (ha).
The construction is programmed to be undertaken and completed within the 2025-2026 financial year. A weekend contraflow system will in place with works undertaken during night-time working hours for three nights.
