‘A £150m road crossing over the River Tay has officially opened after years of planning and construction.
The Cross Tay Link Road runs from west of the A9 and joins with the A93 and A94 north of Scone.
A report previously prepared for Perth and Kinross Council said it would pave the way for thousands of new jobs and relieve traffic congestion.
The project centres around Destiny Bridge – a three-span structure crossing the River Tay – and the New Kingsway – a 6km (3.7 miles) stretch of new carriageway. It also includes 2km (1.2 miles) of realigned dual carriageway on the A9 just north of Inveralmond roundabout.’ (Fromm bbc.co.uk)
