Henry Boot Developments have launched a third and final round of public consultations into their planned Aberdeen Exhibition and Conference Centre with interested parties invited to comment on the proposals ahead of the submission of planning applications this summer.

Delivered in partnership with the city council the Bucksburn proposals will be delivered in tandem with redevelopment of the existing AECC at Bridge of Don to provide new homes and businesses.

On show will be updated interior and exterior views of the Bucksburn scheme, including a green energy centre, three hotels, offices, parking and parkland.

Changes since an initial round of consultation include the adoption of a horseshoe layout to improve visibility from all seats and a separation of the conference suite and small exhibition halls.

A central public piazza is now also more enclosed.

Henry Boot Developments Scottish director Nick Harris said: “I’m delighted to get this final stage of our public consultation under way and unveil our revised proposals for both the new Aberdeen Exhibition and Conference Centre and for the site at Bridge of Don.”

The consultation will be held in the Upper Mall of the Bon Accord Centre tomorrow and Saturday between 10:00 and 18:00. From 30 March to 10 April the proposals will also be on view within Marischal College.
