Bushfire, Mountain Creek

Police have closed the Sunshine Motorway in both directions due to a bushfire at Mountain Creek.

Traffic is being diverted off the motorway to Buderim Avenue.

Motorists are asked to follow police direction and drive to conditions, as there is a significant smoke hazard in the area.

Although the fire is not directly affecting properties at this stage, police are door knocking residents on Amarina Avenue as a precaution.
