A blueprint outlining the possible regeneration of Blairgowrie and Rattray has been drawn up.
The plan contains proposals to create a town theme and the construction of two foot bridges.
Several areas have been identified in a report compiled by consultants as part of a £32,000 charrette process organised by Blairgowrie and Rattray community council in collaboration with Perth and Kinross Council.
This followed a four-day consultation in Blairgowrie Town Hall and efforts to canvass the opinion of groups and organisations, including school children.
As a result, a report has been compiled identifying several areas for regeneration.
These include improving public meeting and gathering places, creating a town theme or brand, improving signage, creating a more pedestrian friendly environment, reviewing parking, tackling dog fouling and stopping littering.
There are also calls to build two new foot bridges over the River Ericht to improve access between Blairgowrie and Rattray.
Other suggestions included looking at vacant, derelict and under-used premises in Blairgowrie and developing established events such as Braemar Day, the book festival and the Highland Games.
In addition, facilities in Blairgowrie should match the current growth in population and that efforts be made to attract businesses to the town.
An open meeting to discuss the findings has been arranged for Wednesday June 29 at 7pm in Blairgowrie Town Hall.
Stuart Nichol of Blairgowrie and Rattray community council said: “The report from the consultants pulls together the results from the many conversations with individuals and groups during the charrette process and presents them to us in a way that enables us to take positive actions in the short, medium and longer term to improve the town.
“The report does not instruct us what to do, unlike most reports of this nature, but encourages everyone to continue to build on the conservations and ideas that have been started by the process.”
