Bridge of Earn to Newburgh Active Travel Route

The Bridge of Earn to Newburgh Active Travel Route project aims to create safe walking, cycling and wheeling infrastructure connecting communities within the A912 and A913 road corridors.

The project has been split into three phases and is looking to be delivered from its western end in Bridge of Earn heading eastwards:

  • Phase 1: Section 1A: Bridge of Earn (BoE) near Old Edinburgh Road to the community woodlands
  • Phase 1: Section 1B: Community woodlands underneath the M90 to just west of Ourdenarde roundabout
  • Phase 1: Section 1C: Bailgie Straight down to Aberargie roundabout
  • Phase 2: Glenfoot through Abernethy to Jamesfield just over the railway line
  • Phase 3: Jamesfield to Newburgh

Please use the links below to learn all about the project, including what's happening now, community consultations, maps, and much more.

If there are any queries or facts you require more information on or to give us feedback, please contact us on [email protected]
