"There is only one way in and one way out to some of those lakes communities and it is really dry out there at the moment, so if there is a fire or any other form of emergency, it would be a disaster if the road wasn't clear and free. We also need to be able to park as close as we can to the event for the same reasons."
On Saturday the ZM music festival Float will take over Blue Lake.
So far 3940 Float tickets have sold, and event director Lucy Wymer said she was "stoked" about that.
"It's always really hard to tell if we will sell out but sales are going really similarly to last year, which suggests that yes we are."
Tickets to Float are still available.
