Permits and rules in Perth
Perth and Kinross Council is the highway authority for Perth: Perth and Kinross is the highway authority for local roads. Trunk roads are managed by Transport Scotland.
Road works in Scotland are noticed on the Scottish Road Works Register under the New Roads and Street Works Act 1991, and the Scottish Road Works Commissioner oversees how they are co-ordinated. The road authority sets the notice it needs for your type of works.
In and around Perth, the A9, A85 and A90 carry most of the through traffic. The M90 is within a few miles. On roads like these, queue lengths decide the method: we set signal timings to keep traffic moving and suggest night or off-peak work where it helps.
With around 47,000 people living in the city, footways, bus routes and school runs all shape how works here are planned.
