100 Mile House is currently under an evacuation order, says Mayor Mitch Campsall.
People will be coming door to door with a notice about where to go and what to do.
Evacuees are asked to head to Prince George east along Highway 24, north on Highway 5 and then west along Highway 16.
There is an Emergency Social Services (ESS) Reception Centre set up at the College of New Caledonia at 3330, 22nd Ave, just off the main highway through town.
Campsall asks that people remain calm and listen to those posting the notices.
The Gustafsen fire breached the south eastern flank of the fire, prompting the evacuation order, says Fire Information Officer Heather Rice.

As a result of the evacuations, the 100 Mile District General Hospital has closed indefinitely.
This means the Emergency Department is closed until further notice.
