I have had early warning of a lengthy road closure. The C30K country road connecting Blairs and Hillside will be closed for AWPR works from 3 March for 29 days. As a preventative measure, Aberdeenshire Council’s Roads Service have taken steps to close the U59K for the duration of the C30K closure.

Signs will be erected in due course advising of the new diversion route. There will be no access to Portlethen from the B9077 South Deeside Road and junction with C30K; this will be signed accordingly.

There will be further publicity and information nearer the time.
