Network Rail has been improving the stretch to increase capacity and upgrade the service- another substantial investment in the North East.
Sections of the line were closed as part of a £300 million project to dual the track and improve the North East transport network. This follows hard on the heels of the recently upgraded Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route.
The majority of Aberdeen to Inverness services will be highspeed and an extra 1,400 seats a day will be available.
Commenting Mr Stevenson, said
“I am delighted today to see the rail link between Inverurie and Dyce reopening for passengers to use and welcome yet another substantial investment in the North East.
“I’d like to thank all at Network Rail who have worked around the clock over the last 15 weeks to ensure this project would be reopened on time.
“These improvements will help to transform rail in the North East and I congratulate all of the staff who have kept customers informed throughout the process. I am pleased to see the service completed today.”
