The work, being undertaken by contractor Kier, will begin on Saturday 20th October on Union Street and last for approximately eight days.
To allow the safe excavation of the road surface to a depth of around 4 metres, a lane closure will need to be in place in the centre of Union Street between Rose Street and Chapel Street for the duration of the work.
A loading bay will be in place in Bon Accord Terrace for the duration of the work in order to mitigate the potential impact of the traffic management measures on local businesses.

Kier will have a representative available on site to speak to any customers affected.
A Scottish Water spokesman said: "We apologise for any inconvenience while our team carries out this work to ensure the waste water network can continue to serve our customers in the area and protect the local environment. We appreciate this is a busy part of Union Street and our contractor has planned the work carefully in order to minimise disruption. The central position and significant depth of the sewer within the road means that a lane closure is unavoidable to complete these essential repairs safely.
"There will be signs in place to help keep traffic flowing and we would urge all motorists to follow these. The site team will do all they can to ensure this work is completed as quickly as possible. We would like to thank customers and motorists for their patience."
