Major Edinburgh road closed due to rush hour smash as commuters warned of delays

A major road on the outskirts of Edinburgh is currently closed following a two-vehicle collision.

The A71 near the Dalmahoy junction is closed due to a smash which took place shortly after 7am on Monday morning, March 6. Traffic, including several Lothian Bus services, are currently being diverted from the scene.

Both the X27 and X28 are affected by the closure. A service alert on the Lothian Buses website reads: "Due to a road closure buses are unable to serve part of A71 and are instead diverted via Bonnington Road, Cliffton Road, Newbridge, A8 and A720 in both directions until further notice."
