Diversions in place after partial collapse of Aberdeen road

A section of an Aberdeen road has collapsed today.

Diversions have been put in place after part of Skene Square was discovered to have collapsed.

The road is currently south-bound only between Maberley Street and Hutcheon Street while staff from Aberdeen City Council assess the issue.

A spokeswoman for the local authority said: “Engineers are trying to find out what has caused the problem.

“There will be local diversions for north-bound traffic.”
