Aberdeenshire Council has announced traffic management will place on the A93 at Milltimber in May and July as part of the works on the AWPR/B-T project.

The first phase of works will take place between 1 May and 6 July. This is to enable utility diversion and trial hole works to be undertaken.

The traffic management will involve temporary traffic lights and lane restrictions.


An AWPR/B-T Project spokesperson said: "The A93 (North Deeside Road) at its junction with the B979 (Milltimber Brae Road) will be subject to periods of traffic management between Friday 1 May and Monday 6 July.

"The next phase will involve the construction of a temporary local diversion in the area and will follow shortly afterwards. The remaining phases will include the construction of a bridge to carry the A93 over the AWPR/B-T and a signal controlled junction between the A93 and B979.

"As with any traffic management works, we advise motorists to plan their journeys in advance and thank road users for their patience during this period."

The works are expected to last up to 18 months.
