Colinton Road blocked after accident involving bus and two cars near The Edinburgh Clinic

Colinton Road is currently a no-go area following a crash involving a bus and two cars.

The busy Edinburgh route is blocked in both directions, with things looking slow on surrounding routes.

The incident happened at around 12.30pm, close to the Edinburgh Clinic.

Lothian Buses tweeted to say that "due to a road closure" services 10, 27 and 45 were being diverted. Their vehicles are unable to use Colinton Road for the time being and are instead being diverted via Ashley Terrace, Shandon Place, Slateford Road and Craiglockhart Avenue.

We'll bring you more in this as we get it.
