Related closures will cause significant traffic disruption to the Cliftonville Road area moving into the morning, the PSNI has warned
Police are at the scene of a security alert in North Belfast, following the search of a property during the early hours of Friday (July 17) morning, the PSNI has confirmed. Properties located in Rosapenna Parade and the surrounding areas are in the midst of being evacuated, with the Ardoyne Community Centre opened for local residents as a rest shelter as this situation continues to unfold. A PSNI spokesperson said: “Cordons are also in place, and we would ask that the public avoid the Rosapenna Street and Cliftonville Road areas at this time, as officers remain at the scene, with enquiries set to continue for some time. “In particular, it is anticipated that there will be significant traffic disruption to the Cliftonville Road area as we move into the morning, so we would ask that you please seek an alternative route for your journey.” The PSNI spokesperson said whilst police understand the disruption closures such as this can cause, “public safety is always our priority”.
