Road works at the top of Broughton Street/York Place started on Friday 11 January and are expected to remain in place for another two weeks, writes Stephen Higham.
They involve the construction of of a new drainage system in the area.
Buses wishing to access the bus station must now enter via Little King Street and exit via York Place. Cars too have to divert via Princes Street or parallel routes further north.
Signs attached to the fence at the top of Broughton Street point people towards shops in the area, and indicate the direction of pedestrian crossing points and landmarks (see map below).
