A security in east Belfast which caused major traffic delays has been declared an 'elaborate hoax'.
A suspicious object was discovered on My Ladys Road, off the Ravenhill Road, on Wednesday morning.
The Ravenhill Road was closed between the Ormeau Embankment and Woodstock Link.
Police and army bomb disposal experts attended the scene.
The roads have been reopened.
Ulster Unionist Councillor Sonia Copeland said: "This security alert has caused serious disruption to people commuting to and from the city centre this morning and to local children making their way to school.
"It is angering that we are not yet beyond security alerts, people should not have to be faced with this in 2015."
