Motorists are being warned that the Tay Road Bridge will be closed overnight on Friday (January 28), for urgent repairs to take place.

A damaged expansion joint on the southbound carriageway will mean the bridge will close between 12.15am and 5am in the early hours of Friday to allow contractors to work safely.

Signs warning drivers of the works will be put in place at both approaches to the bridge and emergency services and bus companies have been informed.

In the meantime, one lane southbound is closed and a strict 30mph speed limit has been imposed until the full repair is completed.
