It involves a section of the line between Faskally and Pitagowan north of Pitlochry.
Tree and vegetation clearance along a nine-mile stretch of Perthshire railway line was set to commence this week.
The company said the work is necessary “to keep passengers safe and trains punctual and to reduce the risk for lineside neighbours.” They will also treat noxious and invasive non-native weeds within the railway corridor while selectively felling and cutting back trees close to the track. “Through the management of lineside trees and vegetation, we aim to protect the safety of the operational railway line.“Elements of this work are unavoidably at night for safety reasons. However, the teams are always mindful of the impact their work may have and do what they can to minimise this. We want to apologise in advance if anyone is disturbed by the work”.
