The road has also become a favorable route for many UK and European hauliers in recent years keenseeking to avoid DSVA enforcement activities on the M9 at Stirling. This has caused to concern among people who live in communities on the road.

She has since raised the matter with [[Perth and Kinross Council]].<ref>http://www.thecourier.co.uk/News/article/8593/volume-of-lorries-on-a977-worries-villagers.html</ref>
