Blaze near NSW town downgraded

Written By Unknown on Kamis, 03 Oktober 2013 | 20.47

AN out-of-control bushfire burning near a small town on the NSW mid-north coast has been downgraded, the Rural Fire Service says.

The scrub fire is burning in the Crowdy Bay National Park, north of the town of Harrington in the Greater Taree region.

The RFS late on Thursday night downgraded the blaze from "watch and act" to "advice".

Earlier, the blaze crossed containment lines and was burning close to properties at Coralville and Diamond Head Roads.

More than 80 firefighters and six aircraft battled the blaze through the day.

The fire has so far burned through around 3000 hectares of scrub, the RFS said on its website.

Firefighters are back-burning where they can, including at the back of some streets in the township.

About 40 holidaymakers had to be evacuated from a camping area at Diamond Head earlier on Thursday due to the blaze.

A number of roads in the area are closed.
