Police and firefighters are investigating a series of suspicious fires in Sydney’s west.

Emergency services were called to a vacant building in Granville around 4am on Tuesday, which was engulfed in flames when firefighters arrived.

About fifty firefighters responded to the scene and extinguished the fire within an hour.

The intersection of Parramatta Road and Good St near Granville station was closed.

Both lanes on Parramatta Road have reopened, but traffic will be affected by the presence of emergency vehicles.

A spokesperson for Fire and Rescue New South Wales told Daily Mail Australia that investigators are treating the fire as suspicious.

“It’s a vacant building with no power, so it’s being treated as suspicious,” they said.

‘There were also several other fires.

‘Shortly before we arrived there was a rubbish fire around the corner and whilst we were on site another fire started in a separate vacant property a few doors away.’
