Perth and Kinross' provost has suggested reinstating a canal in Perth City Centre.
Provost Xander McDade is inspired by Utrecht which recently ripped up a motorway to reconnect a historic section of the Dutch city's canal.
But the Perth and Kinross councillor insists he is not proposing pulling up tarmac and tearing down Canal Street's multi-storey car park any time soon and sees it as more of a "long-term" aspiration.
