A bushfire burning in Geraldtonâs south has been downgraded to a watch and act after election volunteers at Wandina Primary School had to leave their polling stations to evacuate their homes.
The alert is in place for people in the area bounded by Brellimos Drive, Eakins Crescent, and McDermott Avenue in Wandina, 6 kilometres south of Geraldton.
Residents in Geraldtonâs south have been told to evacuate as an out-of-control and unpredictable bushfire burns close to homes and schools in the suburb of Wandina.
The fire, which started near the intersection of Verita Road and Columbus Boulevard just before 11.30 am on Saturday, is moving slowly in a southerly direction.
