Plan your journey: Tuesday’s travel

Despite Aberdeen being treated to the first snow of 2015, yesterday was definitely the most depressing day of the year. With several road closures and freezing temperatures, we all could have done with a cosy “duvet day”.

Maybe today will be better…

There’s another weather warning in place for ice and snow in the Highlands and the roads in the north east are still very slippery.

Here’s a quick round up what’s affected this morning so far:

Traffic is particularly heavy in Aberdeen.

Road closures

Banchory – Fettercairn

The B974 snow gate is closed.

Peterhead

Police have closed the road at the junction of Charlotte Street and Uphill Lane alongside Errol Street the weekend’s fish factory fire.

The junction between St Peter Street and York Street is also shut.

Ferries

CalMac services are running as normal and Northlink Ferries may be disrupted.

Schools

Aberdeenshire schools are open today, but pupil transport is limited.
