Spring Road Trip Drive With Music Over Queensferry Crossing To Visit Perth Perthshire Scotland

Tour Scotland Spring travel video of an April road trip drive, with Scottish music, North over the Queensferry Crossing Bridge which spans the Firth Of Forth and North up the M90 motorway all the way to visit the Fair City of Perth in Perthshire. The Queensferry Crossing, formerly the Forth Replacement Crossing, is a road bridge built alongside the existing Forth Road Bridge which carries the M90 motorway across the Firth of Forth between Lothian, at South Queensferry, into Fife and onwards to Perthshire, at North Queensferry. The bridge is 683 feet high above high tide, equivalent to approximately 48 London buses stacked on top of each other and 25% higher than existing Forth Road Bridge. It is estimated the construction involved approximately 10 million man hours. The Queensferry Crossing is 33 miles from Perth, Perthshire 14 miles from Edinburgh and 47 miles from Glasgow. The M90 motorway runs from junction 1a of the M9, at the south end of the Queensferry Crossing Road Bridge, to Perth, passing Dunfermline in Fife and Kinross on the way. It is the most northerly motorway in the United Kingdom. The first section of the M90 opened in 1964 to coincide with the opening of the original Forth Road Bridge.
