Tourist Signs
Last updated | 28/08/2007
The erection of official brown tourist signs on local roads are the responsibility of the Council. On trunk roads they are the responsibility of Transport Scotland. Tourism is very important to Perth and Kinross, and Perth and Kinross work to a policy that ensures a balance between efficient and safe signing for tourists without creating excessive clutter in the town or the countryside.
Tourist attractions and facilities (e.g. hotels) can apply (
Perth & Kinross-Signposting Policy - PDF-721KB) to the Council for direction signs to their location. If they meet the criteria (which may vary by area) then they pay for the costs of erecting the signs. Before applying to the Council for tourist signs you must be part of Visit Scotland’s Quality Assurance Scheme.
