A section of Edinburgh’s tram network will see the temporary suspension of evening services early next week when essential engineering works are taking place throughout the night.
Edinburgh Trams is set to carry out maintenance works at Ocean Terminal on Monday, 30 September, with the last full route service towards the airport departing Newhaven at 20.00.
The last full route service to Newhaven will depart Edinburgh Airport at 19.01. Trams will then run between Edinburgh Airport and Balfour Street for the remainder of the evening, and a full tram service to all stops will resume the following morning.
Throughout this period, ticket acceptance will be in place on Lothian Buses service 16, between Balfour Street and Newhaven.
Andy Conway, the operator’s Head of Engineering, commented:
These necessary works are part of our scheduled maintenance programme and have been timed to minimise disruption for our customers.
They are urged to check our official X account, as well as our website for further service updates.
