Council opens rest centre

Last updated | 10/01/2012

Perth and Kinross Council has opened a rest centre at Loch Leven Community Campus in Kinross, following the closure of the A977. A road traffic accident at Drum has necessitated the evactuation of residents.

The rest centre offers hot food and drinks and bathroom facilities. Council staff and volunteers are on hand to help residents and the Council has made transport from the accident site to the rest centre available.

Anyone evacuated from their home requiring assistance, or anyone wishing to find out more about evacuated friends or family members, can contact Perth and Kinross Council‘s information line on (01738) 475000.

The Council is working with Tayside Police and Tayside Fire and Rescue to ensure evacuated residents have suitable overnight accommodation. It is likely that the rest centre will close at 10pm on Monday 9 January, once all residents have been found accommodation.
