Bushfire WATCH AND ACT for parts of SOUTH BUNBURY in the CITY OF
BUNBURY
A bushfire WATCH AND ACT is in place for people in an area bounded
by College Row to the north, Coral Street to the East, Knight
Street to the south and Hotchin Street to the west in SOUTH BUNBURY
in the CITY OF BUNBURY.
There is a possible threat to lives and homes as a fire is
approaching in the area and conditions are changing.
The fire started near the intersection of IVEY CT and ADAM ROAD in
SOUTH BUNBURY..
WHAT TO DO
If you are not prepared or you plan to leave, leave now if the way
is clear.
If you are well prepared and plan to actively defend your home,
make final preparations now.
If you plan to stay and actively defend, do not rely on mains
water pressure as it may be affected. You need to have access to an
independent water supply, and start patrolling your property to put
out spot fires.
Keep doors and windows closed and turn off evaporative air
conditioners, but keep water running through the system if
possible.
If you are not at home, do not try to return as conditions in the
area could be very dangerous.
