Engineers have started renewing sections of track, refurbishing bridges and preparing platforms for the arrival of new train fleets as part of the scheme.
Features include the £4 million refurbishment of South Esk Viaduct at Montrose and replacing over a mile of life-expired track on the line between Dundee and Aberdeen. In addition, platforms at Aberdeen station will be altered as part of a £1m project to allow a new fleet of trains to operate in the future.

Works will take place on the following dates; 14, 21, 28 January and 03, 04 February.
David Dickson, the ScotRail Alliance's infrastructure director, said: "We are building the best railway that Scotland has ever had, and that really does apply to all of Scotland.
"While this work is being carried out, we will be doing all we can to keep people moving. We know that nobody likes having to take a bus instead of a train, which is why we're carrying out the majority of these works on days when less people travel."
