First look at new North Liverpool super fire station

New images have revealed the first look at a multi-million pound “world class” fire station in North Liverpool.

Members of Merseyside Fire and Rescue Authority (MFRA) signed off on the purchase of land at Long Lane, Aintree, yesterday as the service moves to build a new multi pump super station combining existing sites in Croxteth and Aintree. A budget of almost £40m has been set aside by the authority for the entirety of the project.

The fire service has now released a series of images outlining how the new station will look on completion in around two years time. Liverpool Council handed the fire authority planning permission for the new fire station to be built on land formerly occupied by Commercial Hydraulics on Long Lane earlier in May. The new station is expected to boost response times in both areas in the process.
