Due to severe localised flooding, services between Edinburgh Airport and Edinburgh Park Central are suspended.
The rainfall since Monday afternoon has affected drainage systems, and the A8 underpass located between Edinburgh Gateway and Gyle Centre tram stops has become flooded.
Edinburgh Trams is currently operating service to and from Edinburgh Park Station and the City Centre. The situation is being closely monitored and customers are asked to check the website, app and Twitter accounts for up to date information.
A spokesperson for Edinburgh Trams said: “Due to the severity of the flooding, we are only able to operate part route. Until the water level reduces, we are doing our best to keep our customers moving safely.
“We understand how important our services are to the city and we are working hard to keep our customers up to date through our normal channels.”
Ticketing Services Assistants have been sent to key locations to help customers with onward journeys and Lothian Buses are accepting tram tickets.
