Commitment to new Aberdeen Don bridge reaffirmed

The aim is for a third River Don crossing is to improve access in the north of Aberdeen

Aberdeen councillors have reaffirmed their commitment to a new bridge over the River Don at the proposed site near Tillydrone.

Supporters of the project insist the bridge would ease traffic congestion.

However, Labour has long been opposed to the route currently planned at Tillydrone.

There was a lengthy debate on Wednesday, and councillors voted to reaffirm their commitment to the so-called third Don crossing.
