Police were called to the AWPR after a lorry got stuck on one of its roundabouts.
The road was closed northbound at the junction with the A956 Cleanhill Roundabout while the vehicle was recovered.
A police spokesman said: “The call came in to us at 3.06am to an incident involving a lorry at Cleanhill Roundabout.
“The vehicle had not negotiated the turn fully.
“The road was closed at 5.51am to allow for recovery. It reopened at 6.52am.”
Today work will begin to install bright yellow rumble strips as a way to remind road users that they need to slow down as they approach the junction.
