A92 road

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The A92 is a major road in Fife, Scotland. It runs north east from its junction with the M90 motorway near Dunfermline past Cowdenbeath, Lochgelly, Kirkcaldy, Glenrothes, Ladybank and Newport-on-Tay.

It then crosses the Tay Road Bridge to Dundee and continues along the east coast past Monifieth, Carnoustie, Arbroath, Montrose, Inverbervie and the Fowlsheugh Nature Reserve before terminating at Stonehaven where it merges with the A90 for the final 15 miles to Aberdeen - this section acting mainly as a coastal tourist route for traffic bound for the Granite City.

The 16-mile section of the road in Angus from Dundee to Arbroath was recently upgraded to dual carriageway standard; it opened in late 2005 and significantly reduced the journey time between the two towns.

The section of the A92 between Dundee and Aberdeen was formerly part of the Euroroute system, of route E120 which ran in a circular route between Inverness, Aberdeen, Dundee and Perth.
