Luncarty Bridge

Luncarty Bridge is the name given to the junction where the B8063 and B9099 terminate on the A9 a few miles north of Perth. The junction is grade separated, with the dual carriageway A9 passing through underneath. The B8063 actually terminates on the B9099 on the northbound side of the A9, at a simple give-way junction, with the A9 Northbound on and offlsips immediately to the south of this junction. There is then a two-way bridge carrying traffic across the A9 into Luncarty village, with an on-slip onto the southbound A9 squeezed between the main road and the railway line. Southbound traffic on the A9 is not, strictly speaking, catered for at this junction, although it can leave the A9 a couple of miles to the north, and follow the old route of the A9 through Luncarty to reach the B8063.

The junction was built when the A9 was first upgraded to the north of Perth in the 1970s. Indeed, the B8063 now follows the old route of the A9 through Redgorton, while the B9099 then takes over through Luncarty. For many years, this junction also marked the northern end of the continuous dual carriageway from the M9 at Dunblane, although since 2020 the dual carriageway extends north to Birnam. The old south bound offslip was closed up as part of these works, and a new local access route built alongside the A9 to connect to the next junction to the north instead.
