The question
To ask the Scottish Executive, in relation to improvements to the A90/A96 at the Haudagain roundabout, what funding mechanism will be used; what the timetable is for delivery of the project; what the expected capital investment is for 2011-12 and each of the following four financial years, and what the projected total cost is.
The answer
The commitment previously given to start improvements to Haudagain Roundabout following completion of the Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route (AWPR) remains firmly in place and preparation work will be put in hand at the appropriate time to achieve that end. The programme for both schemes will be reviewed once the current legal challenges against the AWPR have been resolved.
A decision on how to procure construction of the improvements to Haudagain Roundabout, which will be based on best value, will be taken at the appropriate time.
The STAG Report prepared by Aberdeen City Council estimated that the preferred option (Option 5) would cost in the region of £14.5 million (May 2007 prices and excluding VAT).
