A "well-involved" house fire on Kakenga Rd in Stoke this afternoon is now contained with crews working to fully extinguish it.
FENZ shift manager Alex Norris says FENZ received multiple calls at around 3:25pm due to a large amount of smoke from a property near The Ridgeway.
He says six fire trucks attended the scene with crews from Stoke, Nelson and Richmond.
Nobody was reported to be inside the property.
Nelson City Council says traffic management is set up on The Ridgeway at the Marsden Rd intersection.
It says heavy traffic is expected, and advises drivers to use an alternative route if possible.
