The now-unclassified former A921 South Street, Perth

The A921 is listed in the 1922 Road Lists as a short link in central Perth. The road crossed the town centre, as shown in the sketch map to the right, linking the A9/A90 junction on the now-unclassified King Street with the A85/A920 junction at the Victoria Bridge (now replaced by Queens Bridge).

The route was renumbered in May 1936 as a spur of the A85. However, it is not until the mid 1950s that this change first appears on maps, and it appears to remain as such through the 1970s until the construction of the A9 Western bypass led to the renumbering of most routes in the city centre area. Certainly, the entire length of South Street, including the former A921, is now unclassified and one-way eastbound.

The 1922 MOT Road List defines this route as: Perth (South Street from King Street to Tay Street)
An official document from 16-5-1936 details the following changes: Re-numbered as A85 (spur)
