I’m reliably informed that the new Station does NOT have control of the lights and this is to be added (at some cost) later. An oversight in the planning process – the lights don’t even have a box junction so I fear your concerns over response times are probably correct. Also moving the station means that the Retained Duty Firefighters will be responding to a new location. As far as I know there has been o new recruitment process toattract RDS Firefighters nearer the station.
RDS firefighters work elsewhere and respond to personal alerters to turn into the Station; they used to be called part-time firefighters in the past.
Other posters are correct regarding the road opposite leading to Moneypenny and the cycle path leading to Gatewen (and beyond into the new housing estate in Gatewen) The Moneypenny building looks like it will hold dozens and dozens of staff and will add to the congestion in this area.
