Council study reveals drainage upgrade plan to significantly reduce flood risk in Perth neighbourhood

A Perth and Kinross Council flood study has recommended measures - costing around £310,000 - to significantly reduce the risk of flooding in the Craigie Burn catchment area.

The study - carried out by Amey Consulting - highlights a history of significant flooding in this area of Perth dating back to September 1981 with the most recent notable events in August 2020 and September 2022.

The draft study's recommendations are deemed as "a cost-effective and beneficial solution to reduce flood risk and protect the properties in the area".
