Extract from email received from Scottish Water.
I am writing to let you know about works on Princes Street in Edinburgh following an issue with a manhole at its junction with Frederick Street.
We are now about to begin our repair, with work expected to start on Monday 16 September 2024 for up to five days.
In the meantime, Princes Street has been reduced to one lane and Frederick Street closed from Princes Street to Rose Street.
Diversions are in place for buses and taxis while tram services are unaffected.
We would like to thank everyone affected for their patience and understanding.

Scottish Water : Emergency Works at McDonald Road Waste Water Pumping Station
Email as received by NTBCC from Scottish Water regarding emergency works on McDonald Road.
“Scottish Water is currently responding to a pump failure at McDonald Road Waste Water Pumping station in Broughton.
Our teams are currently working to resolve the issue and will be installing temporary pumps and generators from Friday night and over the weekend.
A crane is currently being installed in the playground of Broughton Road Primary School and Heras fencing is also being installed around the site.
The generators are planned to be switched on, on Saturday. While we will work to reduce the noise impact of this work, we expect there to be some disruption over the weekend. We are exploring all avenues to reduce this risk.
Letters are being delivered to those nearest and we apologise for the inconvenience caused.
We will update you on Monday once the temporary equipment has been set up.
If you have any questions, please contact norma.alexander@scottishwater.co.uk “
