BLAIRGOWRIE — Phase 2 of the A93 Perth Road resurfacing is under way, closing Dunkeld Road to Beeches Road for about eight days and diverting buses via Beeches Road and Emma Street.
Service 63 will not serve the community hospital in this phase; alight at Beeches Road for the hospital run. Phase 1 already trained most passengers in the art of the scenic short story.
“We’ve polished the windows,” said a fictional Emma Street curtain. “If you’re diverting past, at least look presentable.”
Please allow extra time, check Stagecoach updates, and pack a flask.
The real story: A93 Perth Road Blairgowrie Phase 2 resurfacing closure from 28 Oct (PKC)

Soft opening as scenic bypass. They’re not wrong.
