Practice Burn to Close Portion of E. Highland Drive on Sunday Morning
Arlington Fire will close E. Highland Drive between SR-9 and S. Olympic Avenue on Sunday, November 17 from 6:00 a.m. until approximately 9:00 a.m. to conduct a deliberate burn of a home at the corner of E. Highland Drive and SR-9.
Arlington Fire and other local Fire departments will burn the structure to provide local
firefighters the opportunities to practice essential firefighting skills and tactics using real world scenarios. Deliberate burns such as this one are essential to firefighter training, as structure fires are on the decline as a result of rapid improvements in home fire safety. For the past month, local departments have been using the house to practice other skills such as entry to structures and ventilation tactics.
Drivers will need to use other routes to access the area during the burn, including 204th St NE, Olympic Avenue, and E. 4th Street.
