Edinburgh: So, there’s some roadwork happening in the city. They’re fixing tram tracks, and it’s going to cause a bit of a hassle for drivers and bus riders.

West Maitland Street will be closed overnight on January 18, and Shandwick Place will have closures from January 15 to 18. It’s all happening between 12:15 AM and 4:30 AM, so if you’re out late, plan ahead!

Also, from January 20 to 22, there will be lane closures on Princes Street. Lothian Buses is already warning folks about the changes to their routes, so keep an eye on that if you rely on public transport.

They’ve got a bunch of diversions lined up for different bus services, so it’s best to check their updates. It’s a bit of a mess, but they’re doing their best to keep everyone informed.

Just a heads up, if you’re driving in the area, you might want to find alternative routes. It’s always a good idea to stay updated on local news to avoid any surprises!
