Published Date: 12 June 2009
A ROADWORKS embargo at Haymarket in August has been scrapped in a bid to get tram works finished before Christmas.
The move was approved by councillors along with plans to deploy an army of "trambassadors" to try to ensure this year's Festival is not spoiled by tram work on Princes Street.

Taxi drivers and parking attendants are among those who will be recruited to the scheme, with officials demanding the ambassadors should be "presentable, articulate, courteous and friendly".

Closed for Refurbishment

Edinburgh regrets to inform visitors that is it currently closed for refurbishment. We thank you for your visits over the last 1,000 yearsa, and we look forwward to welcoming you back in 2012.

Might as well come out with it now - they've been closing the place by stealth over the last year.

Haymarket finished by Christmas. Having seen what they are now doing in Princes St, Haymarket will have roadworks until Christmas 2010!
