Railway lines between Cardiff and Swansea have reopened after a suspected wartime bomb was found.

Police were called after the device was discovered in Cheapside, Bridgend, at about 13:10 BST.

Officers were called to the same location in July after two “unexploded ordnance devices” were found at a building site.

GWR said there may be some minor delays but things were “getting back to normal”.

Tremains Road and Cheapside were closed and Aldi, Asda, Brackla House and the building site evacuated.

Great Western Railway [GWR] originally said all stations between Cardiff Central and Bridgend may be cancelled or delayed because of the “wartime bomb”.

A spokesman said lines reopened at about 16:15, but disruption was expected until 17:30.

South Wales Police said: “We are advising the public to avoid Brackla Street from Castle Bingo down to Wilko as well as Plumb Centre, Papa Johns and the Honda dealership.”
