Nannup homes threatened by bushfire

Written By Unknown on Rabu, 13 Februari 2013 | 13.23

AN unpredictable bushfire in Western Australia's Blackwood Valley is threatening lives and homes.

Residents south of Spring Valley Road, west of Maranup Ford Road, north of Southampton Road and east of the area between Glenarden Road and Cassia Road in the Donnybrook-Balingup, Bridgetown-Greenbushes and Nannup shires must act immediately, the Department of Fire and Emergency Services (DFES) says.

"There is a threat to lives and homes," the DFES statement on Wednesday said.

Residents are being told to leave via Southampton Road to Brockman Highway, or Maranup Ford Road towards Bridgetown.

The fire started at River Road on Tuesday, has crossed the river and is burning in a south-easterly direction. It is out of control and unpredictable.

The Bibbulmun Track, including Kings Hut, is closed between Balingup and Donnelly River Village.

Two more less serious fires are also burning in the Nannup area, and are thought to have been started by lightning.

More than 130 personnel from the Department of Environment and Conservation, DFES, the Forest Products Commission and local volunteer bushfire brigades are working on fires in the area.

Firefighters are being assisted by four water bombers and a helicopter.
