NSW parks to close during weekend heatwave

Written By Unknown on Rabu, 09 Januari 2013 | 23.51

ALL walking tracks in NSW National Parks will be closed until after the weekend's forecast heatwave, which authorities fear will worsen bushfire conditions in the state.

Parks in western NSW will remain closed until at least Monday, as will any park with an active fire, NSW National Parks announced on Thursday.

The Bureau of Meteorology has forecast temperatures up to the mid-40s in NSW from Friday, and in the mid- and high-40s in western areas on Saturday.

And with about 100 fires burning across NSW on Thursday afternoon, NSW National Parks says it "is putting safety first" by closing parks where there is any question of safety.

The announcement comes after the Rural Fire Service earlier declared a statewide total fire ban throughout NSW on Friday.

An RFS spokesman said Friday's fire ban would be enforced because of "hot and dry conditions, as well as the large number of fires burning across the state".

The statewide ban will come into force at midnight on Thursday and will apply throughout the whole of Friday.
