A road in the north-east is closed after a car collided with a bridge.
The unclassified road between the A980 and the B993 south of Torphins was shut following the incident just after midnight.
There are concerns there may be structural damage to the bridge, which crosses a burn. Council staff are due to carry out an inspection later today.
