Granton Road Sewer Collapse
Road Closure
A large sinkhole appeared on the carriageway caused by the collapsed sewer
We are carrying out an emergency repair on a collapsed sewer on Granton Road in Edinburgh.
The road is closed between Boswell Green and Afton Terrace to allow the work to be carried out quickly and safely as the sewer lies approximately four metres underground.
We appreciate this is a busy bus route and we can only apologise for any inconvenience caused. A diversion has been set up and although Granton Road is closed to vehicles we will ensure access for pedestrians is maintained.
Work to begin excavating the damaged section of sewer and carrying out the repair is expected to be completed and the road reopened by the end of August 2024.
We would like to thank everyone affected for their patience and understanding.
