Essential sewer repair work in Prestonpans

We have successfully completed our essential sewer repair works in Prestonpans, one week ahead of schedule.

Work began on Summerlee on Tuesday 5 May and involved repairing a damaged sewer beneath a set of stairs leading down from the road. To allow our teams to carry out this work safely, a section of the road was closed to vehicles and the steps were temporarily closed for the duration of the work.

We’re pleased that full access has now been restored, with pedestrian access maintained throughout for residents where possible.

A graphic showing the location of the closure can still be found in the original customer letter, available to download below.

We would like to thank everyone affected for their patience and understanding while we carried out this essential work.
