The A91 was closed both ways between Station Road and Kemback turn off – but reopened on Sunday afternoon.

As a result, traffic was said to be heavy in the area and Stagecoach was forced to divert services due to run through the village.

A spokeswoman for Police Scotland said: “Around 08.05am on Sunday officers were called to a report of a two vehicle crash, with one on fire, on Main Street, Dairsie.

The road remains closed

“The vehicle fire was put out.

“Emergency services attended and officers are assisting with traffic management.”
