In Your Area

A city street is closed off for construction, with barricades, traffic cones, and a sign reading "Road Closed." Construction machinery is visible in the background, and scaffolding covers a nearby building. The weather is wet, with rain making the pavement glisten. Residential buildings line both sides of the street.

Rosebery Crescent Emergency Sewer Repair

We recently carried out emergency sewer repair work in the Haymarket area of Edinburgh.

During investigations on a damaged section of sewer beneath Rosebery Crescent, we identified further damage extending to the main sewer connection on Haymarket Terrace.

Due to the size of the pipe and the depth it is buried - three metres - we had to close part of the road to carry out the work safely.

Latest Update – November 2025

Following the completion of our emergency sewer repair works in July, our team now needs to return to site to relay slabs at the junction of Rosebery Crescent and Haymarket Terrace.

This activity is planned for Wednesday 19 November and is expected to take two days to complete, but our team will do their best to complete this as quickly as safety allows.

To allow these works to be carried out safely, a road closure will be required at the bottom of Rosebery Crescent. A signed diversion route will be in place for the duration of the closure.

We will work as efficiently as possible to minimise disruption and appreciate your patience and understanding while this important reinstatement is completed.
