“The wildfire is primarily burning vegetation and has had multiple ignition points along Highway 166, a road that cuts across the forest…”
Read it again “a road that cuts across the forest.”
Roads (well, human activities) are a leading source of wildfires.
More roads = more fires.

I've written extensively about how roads in forests contribute to forest fires, from drying vegetation to creating more chances for ignition by vehicles, tools, and fools. Building more roads in our forests actually increases the risks of more fire!
