Inverurie Bypass
29th of September 2026, 7:00pm to 30th of September 2026, 5:00am

Amey is undertaking investigation work at the A96 Don Inverurie New Bridge on the Inverurie Bypass under overnight road closures on Tuesday 29th September and Wednesday 30th September.

The investigations are required to understand the existing condition of the structure in advance of any future maintenance or refurbishment work being required.

Map

To ensure the safety of roadworkers and motorists, the investigation work will be undertaken using overnight road closures of the A96 between Inverurie Roundabout and Blackhall Roundabout, from 7pm to 5am each night.

The following diversion route will be in place through Inverurie.

Northbound traffic on the A96 can take the third exit at Inverurie Roundabout onto the B993 Elphinstone Road. They can then follow the route to the next mini-roundabout and turn right onto St. James’s Place then follow the road to the next junction.

Traffic can then turn left and follow the High Street/B9001 to the next roundabout at Market Place, taking the first left onto West High Street and continuing to the next mini roundabout. At the roundabout they can take the 2nd exit onto the B9170 Blackhall Road and follow the route to Blackhall Roundabout where they can rejoin the A96.

A96 southbound traffic can follow the above route in reverse.

This diversion route will add up to five minutes additional journey time.

Please note, all schemes are weather dependent and may be cancelled or rescheduled if weather conditions are not favourable.
