Plymstock’s new fire station is all set to go!

This is part of Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Services, Safer Together programme of ongoing investment into our fire service buildings that support our firefighters and the local communities.

The tender for construction works is currently live and this is a result of many months of close working between the Services estate's team, the operational working group, and professional designers. This is considered to be a really positive progression during these difficult and challenging times created by Covid-19. Work is anticipated to start at Plymstock Fire Station in the early winter of this year.

The new fire station will:

• Enhance, reflect, and complement the existing architecture.
• Be better designed by considering the functional requirements of a modern fire station.
• Incorporate enhanced building design and layout, including consideration of sustainability which will minimise energy use and reduce its carbon footprint.
• Be accommodated on the existing site, thus resulting in both sustainable and environmental benefits due to avoiding greenfield development and any associated infrastructure works for example roads and utilities
