A 34-year-old man has been seriously injured in a two-car crash.
The A947 Aberdeen to Banff road was closed overnight on Friday after the crash, which happened at about 10.05pm between Dyce and Newmachar.
A silver Ford Focus travelling north and a black Fiat 500X, which was going in the opposite direction, collided.
The road was closed by police for six hours, while the vehicles were recovered and the two drivers were taken to Aberdeen Royal Infirmary.
Police have since confirmed the Ford driver suffered serious injuries, but non-life threatening, injuries.
The 29-year-old male Fiat driver was treated for a foot injury and later released.
Traffic was given access to the section of the A947 again at around 5.30am on Saturday.
