Temporarily relocating firefighters from the New Sudbury station to the Minnow Lake station has added as much as four minutes in response time to call-outs in the New Sudbury area
The New Sudbury fire and ambulance station on Leon Street has been temporarily vacated after potential asbestos was stirred up during a washroom renovation.
The full four minutes would apply to the outer reaches of the New Sudbury station’s response area, Deputy Chief Jesse Oshell told Sudbury.com, noting it’ll also depend on where the truck and crew is at the time of a call-out. “We’ve looked into the issue and realized that there is the potential. So with that, until we can get results from an investigation we’re in now, we’re going to keep crews out of that station.”
The City of Greater Sudbury let the public know about the station being vacated in a media release issued late Tuesday afternoon, a few hours after Sudbury.com inquired about the matter while following up on an anonymous tip. In addition to potential asbestos abatement, a media release issued by the city noted that the washroom renovation will require water/sewer main work, which will take up to 10 days and will need to be addressed before crews can return to the space.
