One of the first signs of the redevelopment was the arrival of these two temporary fuel tanks as the current fueling area is due for early demolition.

A view of the depot entrance with signage up for the contractors who are now occupying the depot.

To minimise the amount of vehicles that will need to be stored elsewhere during the redevelopment the disposal stock is being collected by Campbell Commercials for scrap including 50414 (K408 HRS). Fleetnames are being painted out prior to collection.

The preservation workshops have been vacated to allow contractors to setup up office space from which to manage the redevelopment. As such Leyland Tiger Cub GRS 10E was moved to the hanger shed after years of storage.

The heritage fleet is being moved to a secure location in Aberdeenshire during the renovations. 90133 (D304 RYS) is seen here preparing Mercedes O317 EFP 521T for transfer. The horsebox behind is being used to collect spare parts which have been obtained to help assist restoration of the fleet.

Ex Krefeld EFP 521T on tow about to leave. The broken up chassis to the left may all that remains of Aberdeen Corporation DRS 369 (ex 169) a Daimler CVG6.

The chassis of a former fire engine. Its fate is apparently yet to be decided. It will need to be removed shortly to allow this shed to be demolished.

Daimler CVG6 WTS 937A (ex DRS 360) will be one of the last vehicles to move as work remains active in restoring the vehicle.

The old tram sheds were vacated in late 2007 ready for demolition.

Once the main tram works latterly for maintenance on the main bus fleet the main tram shed is now empty.

The revised layout of the yard showing buses queued up to enter the temporary wash and fuel pump.

B10BLE 62210 (W598 RFS) passes through the new bus wash.

Buses lined up ready to heady down for Pittodrie for overnight parking.

The coachpark at Aberdeen Football Clubs stadium at Pittodrie is being used to park buses overnight while the depot is under redevelopment at King Street.

Initially 20 buses were parked at Pittodrie while the new bus wash took over the main yard.

When these shots were taken in April around 40 buses were being stored after the sheds were closed down for demolition.

Around 70 buses will be stored here once demolition work begins.

Buses to be parked up at Pittodrie overnight are screened up with AFC on the destination as seen here to allow shuttle drivers to identifiy them.

Buses are normally gone by 8am but on Sundays and Bank holidays the fleet remains here.

An early morning shot of the main hanger sheds with a wide collection of buses on the day demolition of the sheds was to begin.

Work begins on the old hangers.

Vehicles squeezed in to the rear yard early morning. Depot space is at a premium while demolition is under way.

The tram sheeds. 50 years to the week the last tram left here, demolition begins.

Work begins on stripping the old battery shop/uniform store.
