Carriageway reconstruction works are to begin on the A93 North Deeside Road.

The scheme forms part of the Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route/Balmedie to Tipperty (AWPR/B-T) project.

To carry out the work safely, the A93 North Deeside Road is expected to close west of its junction with the B979 Milltimber Brae around 8pm on Friday, 18 August until 6am on Monday, 21 August. Diversions will be sign-posted.

A Transport Scotland spokesperson said: "These road closures have been timed to take place over a weekend to minimise any inconvenience to road users and the local community while these reconstruction works are being undertaken. A further road closure will be put in place in the coming months to complete these works.

"We would like to encourage road users who need to travel through or nearby this area to plan their journeys in advance and give themselves additional travelling time so that they can reach their destination safely and on time.

"We would also like to thank road users and the local community for their on-going support and patience during the construction works."
