Work is continuing on the Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route/Balmedie to Tipperty (AWPR/B-T) project.

The contractor, Connect Roads, is to start carrying out pavement works and associated road crossings on the A96 near Aberdeen Airport.

Work will take place over the weekend from 8pm today, 09 June, until 6am on Monday, 12 June. A contraflow system will be in place.

A Transport Scotland spokesperson said: "This contraflow is necessary to enable the contractor to undertake pavement works on the A96 and associated road crossings, while enhancing the safety of road workers and road users.

"We would like to encourage road users who need to travel through or nearby this area over this weekend to plan their journeys in advance, especially if they are travelling to Aberdeen Airport, so they can reach their destination safely and on time.

"The contractor has been working closely with Police Scotland, Aberdeen International Airport and the local authorities to ensure that users of this key junction can safely complete their journeys while these works are underway. However, as with all changes to road layout, we advise road users to drive more cautiously than usual.

"We would like to thank road users for their continued patience during these construction works."
