A proposed new tram-style bus system for Aberdeen could cost as much as £323m, according to a new report.

It is hoped Aberdeen Rapid Transit (ART) would run on two routes linking key destinations in and around the city.

The projected price of the project has more than doubled since initial investigations in 2021 – due to increased cost pressures, including a huge rise in construction costs.

Councillors on Aberdeen's net zero, environment and transport committee voted to move forward with engagement on the scheme and officers will report back on progress next year.
