Fire closes major road in Sydney's west - Ninemsn


A major road in Sydney's west has been closed to traffic following a fire in a factory complex.




James Ruse Drive remained closed in both directions at Grand Avenue North early on Friday as 15 fire trucks attended the blaze in Rosehill.


Firefighters responded at 3.56am (AEST) to find two units of the seven-unit complex well alight, a Fire & Rescue NSW spokesman told AAP.


He said crews had contained the blaze but the road remained closed.


The Transport Management Centre said southbound motorists were being diverted at Victoria Road or River Road West, while northbound motorists were being diverted at Hassall Street to Arthur Street and onto River Road West.


Motorists travelling on the M4 are advised to use Silverwater Road exit instead of James Ruse Drive.
