Aberdeenshire Council have announced that the Invercauld Bridge, that was damaged by recent flooding, is to re-open tonight.

The bridge, which sits between Braemar and Ballater was closed after flood waters affected it.

But after hard work from engineers, the council hope that it will be re-opened at 5pm tonight.

Work was also created to build a temporary diversion road around the damaged section of the A93 at Micras - despite ongoing heavy rain.

In the coming weeks and months Aberdeenshire Council will be considering options for the permanent replacement of the A93.
