Two cars were involved in the crash.

Two people have been taken to hospital with serious injuries after a crash on the A90 near Dundee.

A man, 23, and a 28-year-old woman were injured in the two-vehicle collision between Dundee and Longforgan, near Invergowrie.

The southbound side of the dual carriageway was closed for about 10 hours following the incident, which happened just after 1am and involved a black BMW and a silver Skoda.

Police clearing debris from the road.

One lane of the northbound side was also shut but had reopened by 7.55am.

Drivers were being diverted via Coupar Angus or the Tay Road Bridge.

The incident caused long tailbacks in both directions with one local describing the traffic situation on nearby side roads as “chaos”.

The incident caused long queues on the northbound side.

He said: “The low road is basically a solid line of traffic from Invergowrie through Kingoodie to at least Longforgan.

“They have road closed signs at the start of Invergowrie Main Street on the bypass but people are ignoring them.

“Big lorries are trying to get along the low road but it’s not really wide enough.”

The scene of the crash.

Sergeant Brian McEwen, of Tayside road policing unit, said: “This was a serious crash that occurred in the early hours of the morning when the roads were relatively quiet, however, I am appealing for anyone who may have seen either car prior to the crash or the crash itself to get in touch.

“I would also urge anyone with dashcam footage that could assist our investigation to get in touch with officers.

“Anyone with information is asked to call Police Scotland on 101, quoting incident 0284 of June 13.”
