Fife stretches from the Forth bridges to the Tay, and what generates sweeping differs sharply from one end to the other. The south and west are industrial: the port and dockyard at Rosyth, the petrochemical plants at Mossmorran, the energy park at Methil and long-established estates in Glenrothes, Kirkcaldy and Dunfermline. Dunfermline’s eastern expansion remains one of the largest housing areas in the country.
North and east of the Lomond Hills the county turns agricultural, with Cupar, St Andrews and the East Neuk fishing villages set among arable farms. Harvest traffic, golf events and summer visitors are the factors there. The M90 and A92 form the spine, with the A91, A915 and A985 serving the east, the coast and the Forth shore.
Coverage throughout Fife
Operators cover Dunfermline, Rosyth, Inverkeithing, Cowdenbeath, Lochgelly, Kirkcaldy, Glenrothes, Leven, Methil, Cupar and St Andrews, as well as the East Neuk. Central and west Fife are quickly reached from the M90; the East Neuk and Tay coast involve more travel, so enquiries there are better made early and for longer shifts.
