The road was subsequently closed in both directions as officers conducted an investigation at the scene of the collision.

In a tweet, Edinburgh Police said: “#MayburyRoad has now been re-opened in both directions and officers have concluded enquiries at the scene. However, one lane remains partially closed westbound as repairs are required to the road.

“Thank you for your understanding while the closures were in place”.

Officers continue to appeal for any information.
