SCOTTISH Water are upgrading the water main in Boswall Gardens, Edinburgh, to ensure you continue to enjoy fresh, clear drinking water and reduce the chance of pipes bursting.
Work will commence on Monday, 18 November and is expected to last approximately six weeks.
The work is being carried out by our contractor, Cleantech.
At A Glance:
- Water main upgrade to improve resilience
- From Monday, 18 November
- Six week duration
- Delivered by Cleantech
What to Expect:
Boswall Gardens at the junction with Boswall Terrace will be closed for the duration of our work. Diversion routes will be via Boswall Crescent, Boswall Drive, and Boswall Parkway.
The road closure is essential to allow our team to replace the water main. It will be in place from 8:00am to 5:00pm daily, with an amnesty period at lunchtime between 12:00 noon and 1:00pm to allow essential access for local residents only.
The road will remain open out with hours of operation. Weekend working will also be utilised to expedite work. The hours of operation will be:
- Monday to Friday: 8:00am to 5:00pm
- Saturday: 8:00am to 4:00pm
- Sunday: 9:00am to 4:00pm
Access will be maintained at all times for emergency vehicles and pedestrians. Please take care while following any diversion signage and allow extra time for journeys through this area.
We will do our best to minimise any disruption and construction noise where possible. Any areas of operation will be made safe and secure, with full reinstatements carried out on completion of the work.
Thank you for your patience and understanding while we complete this essential work.
