Major repairs to a flyover between Perth and Dundee which suffered “extensive damage” after being struck by a digger for the second time in four years could take over a year to complete.
The overbridge connecting St Madoes and Glencarse and the A90 section it traverses have also been reduced to single lane traffic light systems for the foreseeable future in a blow to local residents.
Now Carse of Gowrie Councillor Angus Forbes has launched a petition calling on Transport Scotland to raise the height of the bridge to avoid future collisions.
