Temporary traffic management measures for beachfront project works

Temporary traffic management arrangements will be implemented at Aberdeen beach from Monday 12 May to allow crucial works on the beachfront regeneration project.

A phased series of restrictions will enable new utility services on the project site to be safely connected to the city’s utility infrastructure network under the surrounding roads and paths.

These works have been planned to keep disruption to a minimum and will be completed before the school summer holiday break. The restrictions will be as follows:

• Monday 12 May to Wednesday 4 June: Links Road southbound at the Beach Boulevard will be closed. There will be a left turn only from the Beach Boulevard northbound and a left turn only from Links Road northbound
• Thursday 5 June to Friday 6 June: Links Road between the Beach Boulevard and Cotton Street will be closed both ways
• Monday 9 June to Wednesday 11 June: Links Road at the Beach Ballroom will be closed both ways
• Thursday 12 June to Friday 29 June: Links Road at the Beach Ballroom will have parking restrictions and a footpath closure
• Monday 30 June to Friday 4 July: The Esplanade from the Beach Boulevard to Innoflate will have parking restrictions and two-way traffic lights at times

Sign posted diversions via the Esplanade/Links Road and/or the Beach Boulevard will be in place for the duration of the works.

Access to all local businesses and premises will remain throughout the works and all car parks can be accessed via the diversions.

The works are part of the £50 million redevelopment to make the beach area a must-visit destination. The improvements include a class-leading beach park, a large events field, and the enhancement of the Broadhill.
