THE main road between two communities in East Lothian has been closed this morning for emergency repairs to a burst water main, as drivers are advised to "avoid" the area.
The A6093, which connects Haddington to the A68 via Pencaitland, is closed between the B6371 Ormiston and West Byres/ Humbie Road junctions for the works to be carried out.
Scottish Water will be putting out diversion routes for drivers.
