MORE roadworks are set to be carried out on a major bridge - just weeks after it fully reopened.
The Tay Road Bridge, which carries the A92 road across the Firth of Tay from Newport-on-Tay in Fife to Dundee, is set to have work carried out on it for 10 days starting on October 28.
Barriers which were damaged following a collision are to be replaced with road restrictions planned to take effect.

Work will start at the Fife end of the bridge closing one southbound lane, followed by one lane northbound.
Most of the work will take place off-peak or overnight where possible, Dundee City Council has said.
A reduced speed limit will also be in place during the roadworks.
The closure follows major yearlong roadworks to replace the surface on the bridge which ended on September 10.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
