Wildfire-Related Evacuation Alert Cancelled for Areas Including Boston Bar
BC Wildfire Service said the risk to life and property had eased, though the Brunswick Complex fires remain out of control.
- On Wednesday, the Fraser Valley Regional District cancelled an evacuation alert for Boston Bar, North Bend, Fishblue Lake, Canyon Alpine, Nahatlatch, and Scuzzy Creek FSR at BC Wildfire Service's recommendation.
- Despite the Brunswick Complex—encompassing the 67,722-hectare Ainslie Creek and 9,266-hectare Brunswick Creek wildfires—remaining out of control, BC Wildfire Service determined risk to residents has sufficiently subsided.
- Highway 1 remains closed for approximately 20 kilometres between Spuzzum Creek Road and Aspen Road, though portions have reopened due to reduced fire impacts according to Drive BC.
- Residents may return home but should prepare for hazardous conditions including smoke, visible fire activity, and post-wildfire remnants such as debris and puffs of smoke, the FVRD warns.
- Other evacuation orders for the Brunswick Complex remain in effect for properties between Alexandra Lodge and Alexandra Bridge and east of the Fraser River; the FVRD Emergency Operations Centre continues operations at 1-778-704-0400.
