Major Refurbishment

On 4 September 2026 Perthshire North MSP, Mr John Swinney, officially reopened Logierait Bridge following the completion of a major £185,000 refurbishment. The bridge was completely closed for five weeks while the refurbishment was carried out following a Principal Inspection. The works were undertaken by JML Contracts of Auchterarder and were completed a week ahead of schedule.

Support for the refurbishment was provided by a number of organisations including Walk Wheel Cycle Trust, the Griffin and Calliacher Community Fund, the Enchanted Forest Community Trust, the Dunard Trust, our faithful subscribers and many generous individuals.

 

Here are some photographs taken during the refurbishment

Opened in 1865 by the Inverness & Perth Junction Railway, the bridge at Logierait - often known as Tay Viaduct, comprises two 137-foot spans over the river, each formed of two lattice girders. These weigh a little over 100 tonnes a piece and gave the bridge a working load of 88 tonnes. It features side spans at both ends.
