AWPR - U88K Fishermyre to Clayfolds Road closure

A section of the U88K Fishermyre to Clayfolds Road at Fishermyre is expected to close for around nine weeks from Monday 15 January 2018 as part of the Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route/Balmedie to Tipperty (AWPR/B-T) project.

This road closure is necessary to enable the contractor to complete the connections between the new and existing roads, as well as complete verges and drainage works. When the road re-opens, it will allow road users to travel under the AWPR.

Please follow local diversions, which will be sign-posted.

A Transport Scotland spokesperson said:

“This closure of the U88K Fishermyre to Clayfolds Road is necessary to enable the contractor to carry out finishing works, while enhancing the safety of road users and road workers.

“We would like to encourage drivers who would consider using this route to plan their journey in advance, and to allow themselves additional travelling time so that they can reach their destination safely and on time.

"We thank road users and the local community in advance for their patience during this period."
