Buses have started using the new Dyce Park and Ride site, which provides a 1,000 vehicle space facility for commuters travelling to Union Square bus station.
The council project is the latest in a series of infrastructure improvements by the local authority to congestion and reduce journey times as part of a wider strategic plan to connect with other major infrastructure projects which are designed to transform moving around the city including the AWPR/B-T, the Berryden Corridor, and the third Don crossing which was opened last June.

The road element of the scheme, which included a three-lane dual carriageway and cycle lanes, was opened last August.
Council Leader Jenny Laing said: "It is fantastic that this crucial piece of roads infrastructure is going to be in use from Monday.
"We'd urge people to use the £15.2million Dyce Park and Ride as it means you don't have to park in town, and with the bus lanes along the route from the airport, it's a faster journey. Less cars means less congestion on the A96.
"The development will also provide a boost for the region's economy by freeing up prime development land close the airport and the AWPR.
"Along with the Third Don Crossing and the Berryden Corridor improvements, this is just the latest in a series of major projects which will improve journey times for motorists and bus passengers."
