Sewer repair

A road closure will be in place for the duration of the works

Scottish Water is planning to carry out work to reduce the risk of sewer flooding in Rattray.

Following an investigation of the sewer network in the area, we have identified a damaged section of the sewer underneath the A926 near the junction with Hatton Road.

In order to access and repair this section of the network, our operatives require to excavate a section in the centre of the carriageway. 

We are working closely with Perth and Kinross Council and our contractors to implement a road closure to enable our operatives to carry this work out safely. Customers will be contacted once we have confirmed a date for the road closure to be implemented and the work to begin.

In the meantime, measures are in place this week to help deal with any incidents that occur as a result of the anticipated heavy rainfall. Traffic management is currently in place outside Rattray Primary School to allow this to take place. 

Customers who experience any problems while this work is being arranged are asked to report this via our customer helpline (0800 077 8778) as soon as possible and we will arrange the support required.
