The rail operator has said that to facilitate the works, the level crossing, on Gray Street, next to the town's railway station will be shut from 11pm on Saturday 13 January until 6am on Tuesday 16 January.
During that time no vehicles will be able to travel through the crossing, with diversionary routes taking drivers through Brook Street and Fort Street from the south or via Queen Street and Fort Street at the north.

Pedestrians will be able to use the underpass for the duration of the work. Train services at Broughty Ferry are affected by track renewal work further north on Sunday, and passengers are reminded to check their journey at nationalrail.co.uk. A normal train service will operate on Monday and Tuesday.
Engineers will remove the road surface to inspect the level crossing and complete the necessary repairs.
William Anderson, section planner for infrastructure and maintenance at Network Rail said: "The work we're carrying out at Broughty Ferry is vital to the safe and reliable operation of the level crossing.
"To complete the work in the safest and most efficient way, we need to close the level crossing to vehicles, and will operate a diversionary route. Access for pedestrians will remain via the underpass.
"We thank the community for its patience and understanding while the work is ongoing."
