Residents in Perth had the opportunity to view the design of the £3.4 million average speed camera system which will be installed on the A9 later this year.
The event one of a series of public exhibitions to outline safety plans for the notorious road was held at McDiarmid Park, home of St Johnstone FC.
Representatives from the A9 Safety Group were on hand to answer questions about the engineering, education and enforcement measures that are taking place along the route, as well as on plans for the average speed cameras.
The public were able to see the design of the average speed camera system, as well as get further information on planned safety enhancements, such as improved barriers, lighting and vegetation clearance.
Stewart Leggat, chair of the A9 Safety Group, said: “The safety issues on the A9 are complex and a variety of solutions are being used to help cut the number of fatal and serious accidents.
“All of these concentrate on engineering, education and enforcement. We want to hear what people think about our proposals and have the opportunity to explain the thinking and evidence behind them.”
He continued: “The plan to have average speed cameras has sparked a great deal of constructive debate.
“Scottish, UK and global research shows that the cameras have a positive influence on driving behaviour and that they are consistently effective in reducing accidents, particularly those resulting in death and serious injury.
“The A9 Safety Group firmly believes that its coordinated programme of improvements will cut the number of accidents on the route in advance of, and throughout, the period of dualling and we look forward to telling people more about our work.”
The Scottish Government has stressed that it will press ahead with plans to dual the entire A9 Perth to Inverness road by 2025.
Last Friday, transport minister Keith Brown travelled to House of Bruar in Highland Perthshire to launch a safety initiative entitled Think Before Overtaking on the A9.
The campaign included the launch of new website, www.a9.road.info.
Another public exhibition will take place on Tuesday at the River Room, Pitlochry Festival Theatre from noon.
