According to the MD of Foothills, the wildfire near Bragg Creek is now being held.

The blaze remains at 60 hectares in size and weather conditions are being considered favourable for fire crews.

The previous voluntary evacuation order for the area west of Highway 762, between Highway 22 and 178th Avenue West, has been cancelled.

Visibility on local roads and Highway 22, Highway 549, and Highway 762 may be reduced due to ground smoke.

Motorists are being asked to move through the area with caution.
