Security alerts declared hoaxes
Alerts caused traffic disruption in Belfast city centre
Two security alerts in the centre of Belfast have been declared hoaxes.
Shops and offices were evacuated on Tuesday morning after suspicious objects were discovered on buses on the Grosvenor Road and Wellington Place. The alerts caused traffic disruption in Belfast city centre, with long tailbacks on several roads into the city centre. The Grosvenor Road was closed up to the junction with the Falls Road in the west of the city. Part of Great Victoria Street was also closed off for a time.
