Path dream is tribute to activist Roger

A Carse of Gowrie councillor believes it is “imperative” a path in the community is finished to honour the efforts of environmental activist Roger Humphry.

Roger - who died suddenly but peacefully in April - worked “tirelessly” to create a shared use path for cyclists, walkers and other users between Errol and Grange.

Perth and Kinross Council (PKC) has submitted a £100,000 bid to the Scottish Government for support in making Roger's wish a reality.

A report on PKC’s Active Travel Prioritisation Delivery Plan by Road Safety project officer Blair Watt details how the Traffic and Network team has submitted six bids to the Tier 2 Active Travel Infrastructure Fund 2025/26.

And one of them is a £100,000 bid for a Stage 3-4 design bid for the Errol to Grange corridor.

The proposed path already has significant funding and securing this bid would help progress the project.
