INDIAN RIVER COUNTY A very active wildfire that started overnight has crept closer to Interstate 95, and now burns across 450 acres of the St. Sebastian River Preserve State Park, park and fire officials said Friday.
As a result, Interstate 95 likely will be closed all day from Palm Bay in Brevard County south to Fellsmere as multiple agencies work to extinguish the blaze east of Fellsmere, said park manager Dylan Gavagni, with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. It s close to I-95 at this point, he said.
The Florida Highway Patrol reported the fire just after 7:30 a.m. and stated northbound traffic was redirected at County Road 512, while southbound lanes were rerouted at St. John s Heritage Parkway in Brevard County.
