AWPR - U90C Tulloch Road to close this weekend

The contractor for the Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route/Balmedie to Tipperty (AWPR/B-T) project will close a section of the U90C Tulloch Road near to its junction with the C89C Chapel of Stoneywood to Fairley Road this weekend.

 

The road will close at 8pm on Friday 20 July and it is expected to re-open around 6am on Monday 23 July.

 

This closure will enable the contractor to carry out finishing works and complete connections between the existing road and the new bridge which will carry Tulloch Road over the new AWPR.

 

Due to the location of this closure, there will be a number of diversionary routes in place depending on the road user’s intended direction of travel. All diversions will be sign-posted.

 

A Transport Scotland spokesperson said:

 

“This coming weekend will see the temporary closure of the U90C near to its junction with the C89C Chapel of Stoneywood.

 

“This road is a well-used commuter route and therefore the contractor has timed this closure to minimise the impact it may have on road users. However, we would like to encourage those drivers who would consider using this route at weekends to plan their journey in advance. They should also give 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."
