A PRESCRIBED burn will be undertaken on the Perth airport estate from 10am on Thursday morning, south of Kalamunda Road, High Wycombe.

A Perth Airport spokesperson said the prescribed burn was part of its ongoing management program to reduce the risk of bushfire on the estate.

“This day and time have been carefully selected, as the weather and ground conditions are suitable to avoid negative impacts associated with smoke,” the spokesperson said.
