To ensure the safety of roadworkers and motorists, the A90 will be closed between Howe o'Buchan Roundabout to Waterside Junction. Motorists will be diverted from the A90 onto the A950, then along to Windmill Road, the A982 North Road, then back on to the A90.
Consultation has taken place with all relevant stakeholders in advance of the resurfacing improvements to make them aware of the traffic management arrangements.
Commenting on the improvements, Ian Stewart, BEAR Scotland's North East Unit Representative, said: "This £600,000 investment from Transport Scotland will greatly improve and strengthen this section of the A90, as well as create a smoother and safer journey for motorists.
"We thank motorists for their patience in advance while our teams carry out these essential improvements the A90. We encourage road users to plan their journeys in advance by checking the Traffic Scotland website for up to date traffic information and allow some extra time to reach their destination."
Materials removed from the existing carriageway will be recycled using SEPA approved methods.
