Scunthorpe Roads Closed Following Discovery of ‘Suspected Explosive’

Title: Suspected Explosive Device Prompts Scunthorpe Road Closures

Emergency services have cleared a business premise on Winterton Road in Scunthorpe following the discovery of a suspected explosive device. The device was found by Humberside Police around midday. As a preventative measure, the officials created a safety cordon around the area. Subsequently, this has led to several road closures including A1029 Winterton Road, leading to the Glebe Road roundabout, and the A1077 near Dragonby Hill. A specialist bomb disposal team is expected to arrive to further evaluate the situation.
