At a briefing councillors were given an update on progress of the Aberdeen western peripheral route (the AWPR).

The most recent milestones reported included the South Kingswells gyratory being ready for full use. The key focus for the project remains progressing structures, drainage and road construction, side roads and access tracks, on-going watercourse management and maintenance and cleanliness of the existing road network.

There is no date yet for opening the bypass. Officials say it is on target for 2017/18.

Here are some of the images councillors were shown.
