About this crossing

How often it closes

On today’s timetable, Broughty Ferry crossing is predicted to be closed for about 5 h 17 min between 06:00 and 22:00, across roughly 67 closures. The longest single predicted closure is 7 minutes. Freight paths scheduled “as required” (most don’t run on any given day) aren’t counted here; when one does run, the live timeline above shows it.

Worst times to cross today

Closures cluster around 06:14–07:14 in the morning and around 20:15–21:15 in the evening. Gaps between closures are longest outside those windows. Other days run a different timetable, so the peaks move.

About this crossing

The crossing is on Gray Street in Broughty Ferry, Dundee, next to the station.

Broughty Ferry is a CCTV-monitored manual barrier crossing (CCTV) on the Camperdown Jn–Arbroath line (Scotland route · ELR ECN3). A signaller monitors the crossing, confirms it is clear, and lowers the barriers ahead of each train. Forecasts here combine the working timetable with live train-movement data (and live signalling where the crossing has it), so they reflect actual running including delays and freight, though they can still be wrong when the network is disrupted.
