Cross Tay Link Road

The link road will connect to this section of the A9, north of the Inveralmond Roundabout

The Cross Tay Link Road is a road-construction project in Perth and Kinross, Scotland. It will link the A93 and A94 roads, near Scone, to the A9 north of the Inveralmond Roundabout, at Perth, via a new stretch of road, 3.7 miles (6.0 km) long.[1] It will involve a three-span bridge over Scotland's longest river, the Tay,[2] hence the project's name. A cycle path will run parallel to the bridge's carriageway.[1]

The project, which is expected to cost £118 million,[3] is the second phase of the Perth Transport Futures Project, which was formed to "address the key issues identified in the Perth Traffic and Transport Issues Scottish Transport Appraisal Guidance".[4]

Perth & Kinross Council (PKC) stated that the project would "unlock key development land".[5]
