The structure is one of the six bridges in the King Edward area damaged by flooding in late September 2019. Bridge of Fortrie carries the C9S Road from Mains of Fisherie westward to join the A947 at Keilhill.
Bridge of Fortrie has been prioritised for replacement as it has been assessed that it makes the most effective contribution to re-establishing connectivity within the local community.
Commenting, Stewart Stevenson MSP said:
“This confirmation is good news indeed and will be welcomed by local residents in the area.
“Subject to any further restrictions owing to the current pandemic, I understand from council officials that it is envisaged construction of the new crossing will be completed by the end of this summer.
“The replacement will cost around £100,000 and I look forward to further progress being made with work towards replacing the other bridges which were lost in 2019.”
