The area of the Westbahn in Wels has been intensively searched for aerial bombs from the Second World War for weeks. And the search is successful. The fourth relic was found on Thursday. That had an impact.
After a bomb from the Second World War was found on Monday, the alarm went off again yesterday. During dredging work on the Westbahn tracks, a 50 kg bomb was found in the Welas Park shopping center in Wels around 2:20 pm. An exclusion circle of 100 meters was set up.
Trains stopped
Train traffic had to be stopped from 2:50 p.m. to 3:10 p.m., ÖBB said when asked by “Krone”. And not only that: air traffic also had to be temporarily diverted. Part of the Welas Park parking lot has been cordoned off. The bomb disposal service defused and removed the bomb.
