Road in Perth to close for two weeks to allow resurfacing works

A road in Perth will be closed during the day time for a fortnight from next week to allow for resurfacing works.

On Monday, October 17, the project will begin on a section of the A93 Isla Road, which is scheduled to take approximately two weeks to complete, weather conditions permitting.

Road resurfacing will cover a section of Isla Road from the Annaty Burn to Kincarrathie Crescent, while pavement resurfacing will cover a section from Main Street, Bridgend to Keir Street.

To carry out the works safely and efficiently, a road closure and suspension of on-street parking and loading will be in place.

The road closure will be restricted to between 9am and 3.30pm Monday to Friday to minimise disruption.

Outside these times, temporary traffic lights may be used to ensure site safety and give the newly laid road/pavement surface time to cure and harden.

The official diversion route during the works will be via the A94, C438 minor road and the A93, and vice versa.

Vehicle access to properties within the work site will be limited to when works allow, and it is safe to do so, given excavations on site and hot resurfacing material being laid by machinery.

A Perth and Kinross Council spokesperson said: “Some delays should be expected.

“The works contractor will be available to advise and assist with any access requirements. Before the start of works, we would kindly ask that vehicles are moved from Isla Road so that the resurfacing equipment can access the location.

“Access for emergency service vehicles and pedestrians will always be maintained, and residents and businesses are asked to present their bins as normal on their scheduled waste collection days. We apologise for any inconvenience and disruption that may occur during these works.”
