The Bay District Volunteer Fire Department will be conducting a scheduled, controlled burn training exercise on Three Notch Road in Lexington Park, in the area of Poplar Ridge Road on Sunday morning, February 15 starting at 8:00 am.
During this exercise, residents and motorists may see periods of heavy smoke and visible flames from the roadway. This is a planned training event being conducted under controlled conditions to provide our members with valuable, real-world experience that enhances their ability to safely protect our community.
We ask drivers traveling through the area to please:
- Remain attentive and focused on the roadway
- Avoid slowing suddenly or stopping
- Follow all posted traffic laws
- Refrain from using mobile devices while driving
Smoke and fire visibility can draw attention, but maintaining safe driving habits helps prevent secondary accidents and keeps everyone safe.
We appreciate your understanding and support as we continue training to better serve the citizens of our community. See less
