Aberdeen's Union Terrace Gardens have been undergoing a £28m redevelopment since 2019.

The planned reopening of part of Aberdeen's historic Union Terrace Gardens has been cancelled.

The gardens - which originally opened in 1879 - have been undergoing a £28m redevelopment since 2019. A so-called soft opening of a section of UTG was expected, but on Tuesday morning the city council said that would no longer happen as scheduled.It has appeared clear in recent weeks there is still a considerable amount of work which needs to be done on the site.The project was due to be completed last year, but that was put back to this year following delays caused in part by the pandemic.

Aberdeen City Council chief executive Angela Scott said: "The decision not to proceed with today's soft opening followed advice from our construction partner Balfour Beatty. "The council is naturally disappointed that the event can't go ahead but we look forward to the full opening in due course."now says this won’t go ahead due to supply chain issues. No new date has been given.
