Mr Johnson was last seen at around 10.45pm on Wednesday 15th in Hepburn Gardens.
He had left an address on Hay Fleming Avenue on foot a short time earlier, around 10:00pm.
A keen walker, he would often go for walks in expansive areas such as local golf courses, including the Balgove, Craigtoun Country Park and the Strathkinness area.

Last Wednesday, police spoke to over 100 people during a revisit to where he was last seen.
Inspector Hay added: “Everyone was very helpful but unfortunately we have still not managed to find him yet.
"I am keen for people, those who have not already come forward, to check their dash-cam or private or doorbell systems just in case they may have captured footage of Paul.
