Summary
Edinburgh’s Princes Street remains shut down four days after a massive fire tore through a historic former department store, forcing trams to reroute and buses to detour — creating chaos for commuters. Emergency crews battled the blaze with 50 firefighters and specialized gear before declaring it contained, while police and fire officials launch an investigation. The building’s owner, prioritizing public safety, confirms no injuries and thanks responders. Meanwhile, local transit advocates are urging city leaders to implement temporary fixes like bus-only lanes to prevent the city’s transport system from grinding to a halt.
