The section of the road at its junction with Fielden Street and Dunn Street will remain shut while Scottish Water repairs the main and assesses what reinstatement work is required on the road surface and ground beneath.

Scottish Water said every effort is being made to minimise disruption to road users. However, for safety reasons, it is likely some road traffic management will be required there for some time.
