A major north-east road has been closed to traffic following an accident involving a truck.
A stretch of the A90 Aberdeen to Ellon road has been closed half-a-mile south of the junction to Newburgh after a truck carrying rubble dropped massive rocks over both lanes at about 2.20pm.
A diversion is in place.
A spokeswoman for the police said officers were unsure how long the road would be closed, but that clearing efforts are underway.
She added: “Traffic will go through Newburgh and come out at the other side of the spill.
“Both north and southbound lanes have been closed.”
