Project update: 16 May
Phase 3 - B898
Thanks to the local residents who attended our drop-in session yesterday, we hope you found it useful.
Our work continues to progress well along the road and we have now reached section 16 and will shortly move into section 17, shown on the map below. We hope to get to the end of section 18 by early June.
We will continue to keep you informed with the progress we are making on the project with regular updates and an accompanying map.
There's more information here in our project leaflet.

Phase 2 - A9
The majority of phase two of our critical work in the A9 is now complete. We do however, have some work still to complete at the railway bridge, but to keep any disruption to an absolute minimum, this is being carried out under monitored traffic management on weekdays between the hours of 9pm and 6am.
COMPLETED
Phase 1 - Birnam, Little Dunkeld and Inver
All work to lay the gas pipeline through Birnam, Little Dunkeld, under the River Braan and through Inver are now complete. We'd like to thank all local residents and businesses for their patience and understanding as we completed this phase of our gas infrastructure project.
Project background
One of our gas pipes runs close to the River Tay, and due to some erosion on the river bank we need to move and upgrade this section of our network.
Our gas network in the area remains safe and there's no immediate risk, but we want to carry out our construction work now to ensure a safe and reliable gas supply.
Our new pipeline will run between Birnam and Logierait and the project is being carried out by our contractors Advance Group Limited and Morrison Energy Services.
Here's our CEO Mark Wild with more information on our critical project.
