The emergency services incident has led to Westfield Road being closed off between Gorgie Road and Stevenson Road in Edinburgh on Friday June 7 ahead of Taylor Swift’s concert. Edinburgh Travel News took to social media to alert commuters about the mayhem, advising those heading towards Westfield Road to seek a different path.

Their official statement reads: “Due to a road closure buses are unable to serve Westfield Road and Stevenson Road and are instead diverted via Gorgie Road and Balgreen Road in both directions until further notice.”
The scotland>Police Scotland Edinburgh account also tweeted: “Westfield Road is currently closed following a report of concern for a man at a property, which was reported at 12.55pm today. Officers are at the scene and enquiries to establish the circumstances are ongoing. Drivers and concert-goers are urged to use alternative routes.”
