Strathallan residents have been told they may have to wait months to learn details of how T in the Park will affect their community.
Event bosses have, however, pledged to involve the community in the process as they plan for life at a new venue in 2015.
They have promised to make every possible effort to ensure that the festival has minimal adverse impact upon homeowners and businesses.
It was announced last week that the award-winning music festival will move from Balado after 18 successful years.
The news came as a shock to residents and, though there appears to be plenty of support for the relocation, many have concerns about its impact, the suitability of roads and the lack of early consultation.
An insider said: “The organisers were really keen to keep the event in Perth and Kinross and didn’t want to take it out of the area.
“They did look at areas outside of the region, however, and they would have moved if Strathallan hadn’t been such a good fit for the event.”
Organisers DF Concerts have said they will be working to allay fears and will consult extensively, though details may remain scant in the immediate future.
A T in the Park spokeswoman said: “Our relationship with the community is of the utmost importance and we completely understand they will have some questions which we fully intend to answer.
“As we did with the residents of Kinross, we will listen to them, work with them and take their input on board.
“We have already started discussions with the immediate neighbours to the site and we will be meeting with the community councils over the next few months.”
The spokeswoman added that it was “too early” to share details of its traffic management proposals and they have still to go through consultation with the council, partners and the community.
“We have a highly experienced traffic management team that designs plans for major events all over the UK,” she said.
“One of the key deciding factors on choosing a new venue was ensuring that it had a workable traffic route to ensure ease of travel for both festival-goers and the local community. “
While those proposals are still being worked out, bosses have said they will encourage the majority of music fans to arrive by shuttle bus.
They hope to benefit from some of the improved infrastructure that has been invested in the area for September’s Ryder Cup, though car parking facilities will also be available on site.
