An Aberdeenshire road has been closed for safety reasons.
South Deeside Road in Maryculter has been shut to allow crossing ducts to be put in place as utility services are installed for a new housing development.
The road will be closed from Burnside Cottages to near Batchart Steadings and will reopen in the early hours of Monday morning.
Diversions have been put in place via B9077 South Deeside Road – B979 at Maryculter Bridge – A93 North Deeside Road – A90 South Anderson Drive – B9077.
An Aberdeenshire Council spokesman said: “We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause while this work is being completed and advises motorists to check the website for regular updates on all road closures and speed restrictions in the area as the best source of live information.”
