World War II bombs removed from A4 highway
The A4 highway has been reopened after two bombs from World War II were dismantled by the Explosive Ordnance Disposal last night, NOS reports.
The 1,000 pound American bomb and the 500 pound British bomb were found a few weeks ago during A9 rerouting work. The American bomb was located 25 meters from the highway, the British bomb was a few hundred meters further away in a pasture.
