New 'super' fire station set to be built in Fazakerley

Plans for a new “super station” combining existing fire stations at a site in Fazakerley are to be considered by Liverpool Council.

Proposals for a new fire station on a 12-acre site on Long Lane by Merseyside Fire and Rescue (MFRS) will be heard by the local authority next week as part of a strategy to combine existing sites at Aintree and Croxteth. A new two-storey building will be constructed consisting of four appliance bays, incorporating operational and welfare accommodation, offices and training facilities, external drill and training spaces, as well as a four storey training tower.

A training and development academy (TDA) including classrooms, offices, dining space, indoor training facilities and a community meeting room would also be built. A canine training base will be incorporated as part of the proposals according to the application documents.
