A fire has caused extensive damage to at least three businesses in Kincardine Saturday morning.
Fire crews from Kincardine, Ripley, and Saugeen Shores were called to a fire at a commercial building on Durham Market Street South in the morning hours. Crews have brought the fire under control, but extensive damage has been done to the commercial complex housing a laundromat, real estate office, and energy company.
There does not appear to be any injuries as a result of the blaze.
The fire is adjacent to Victoria Park, which is headquarters to this weekend's Kincardine Scottish Festival. As a result, a planned festival opening at the park is being delayed and the annual Scottish Festival Parade, up Main Street, has been cancelled.
ADVISORY: #SouthBruceOPP is advising the public that Durham Market North and South in #Kincardine will be closed due to a structure fire. There will be no access to the Durham Market Square. #OPP on scene. ^lh pic.twitter.com/hgbgzEfhdz
