Work to reduce the risk of flooding near Aberdeen Harbour will go on day and night this weekend.
Scottish Water has announced they will implement 24-hour working from 7pm on Friday to 6am on Monday at the Market Street and Trinity Quay junction.
Scottish Water’s corporate affairs manager Gavin Steel said: “We appreciate that these ongoing works at Aberdeen’s Merchant Quarter are disruptive.
“By implementing 24-hour working over the weekend, we hope to undertake an essential element of the investigations in a way that minimises impact as much as possible.
“This ongoing work is an essential part of future improvements to reduce the risk of storm flooding in an important and bustling part of Aberdeen’s city centre.
“We need to make sure we identify the right solution to reduce the risk of flooding so that the city’s waste water network can continue to serve customers and protect the local environment in years to come.
“We would encourage road users to plan their journeys and allow some extra time where possible – and thank customers for their patience while this work takes place.”
