A high-level cantilever four-lane road bridge which crossed the River Tay 1½ miles (2.5 km) southeast of Perth, the Friarton Bridge represents the northeastern end of the M90 motorway. It allows traffic to bypass Perth to the east linking with the A90 which forges east across the Carse of Gowrie. The bridge was constructed in 1978 and represents the first road crossing upstream of the Tay Road Bridge.
