#QLD #Fire #Corp WATCH AND ACT - #ALLIGATOR CREEK (south of #Townsville). The Queensland Fire and Rescue Service (QFRS) is advising residents in the vicinity of Tindall Street, Hancock Road, Williams Road, and Renwick Road at Alligator Creek to enact their bushfire plans. At 4pm a large grassfire was located at Alligator Creek. The fast moving fire is travelling in a north-west direction and is expected to impact the area of Alligator Creek within the next two hours. Residents are advised that if their plan is to relocate or they do not have a plan then they are advised to relocate now. Leaving well ahead of a fire is the safest option for survival. Well prepared and defended homes can offer safety during the fire and may be defendable. Currently, nine fire crews are working to contain the blaze but firefighters may not be able to protect every affected property and residents should not expect a firefighter at their door. Residents are advised to call Triple Zero (000) if their property comes under threat. Source: Queensland Fire and Rescue Service (QFRS)
