Yip that's the one or actually the Canning Street section that runs between Torphichen Street and the main part of Canning Street.

Do you know what it is like with regards traffic during the day? Is it non stop traffic flow or just a general side street type busy?

Due to start some work on the street on Monday and my boss has said it'll likely be nightshift's and need traffic management but I think I should be able to do it during the day and save the hassle of nights and getting traffic management set up?

Right now shandwick place is a no go due to being dug about 8ft deep lol tramworks being laid and im not sure what canning street is like

Cant really see canning street being that busy tbh but ive not been along that way for a while so cant even comment on access

Yeah I know Shandwick place is closed off for tram works.

I thought that Canning Street would be quiet too but haven't been that street before so didn't know what it was like during the day for traffic. With it being the side street part of Canning Street too rather than the main Canning Street I thought it was unlikely to be busy as well.

Hopefully I'll be able to get done what I need too during the day time and it won't be too busy so I don't need to go organising getting the street closed off during the night
