Work is underway on a major new multi-million pound fire station in North Liverpool.
Last June, Merseyside Fire and Rescue Authority (MFRA) signed off on the purchase of land at Long Lane, Aintree, for the construction of 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 new station will be located on a 12-acre site formerly home to Commercial Hydraulics and will also include a state of the art training academy and national resilience centre. The development will improve operational response times and enable the region’s fire and rescue service to plan effectively against foreseeable risk and emerging threats.
