http://www.aftenposten.no/english/local/article786274.eceWork starts on embassy security fence. The US Embassy in Oslo started work Monday on its so-called "perimeter security project," aimed to ward off terror attacks. Construction is expected to take a year.
The project includes a high steel fence that will surround the embassy, which occupies a site at the corner of one of the city's busiest intersections.
The embassy has been dubbed "Fort America" by critics unhappy with the concrete barriers, cyclone fencing and round-the-clock armed police guards positioned around the site since terrorist attacks on the US in September 2001
